DECEMBER, 1894.] THE BHASHA-BHUSHANA OF JAS'WANT SINGH.
(6) The second kind is that in which there are lengthy compound words, and is called parusha vritti, or Harsh repetition.
(c) The third is that in which there are no compound words, and no repetition of melodious letters. This is called Komala vritti, or Delicate repetition.
Examples are:
Very dark and heavy are the clouds, and the dear lady is of tender age. Her beloved is in a far country, and anxious is she, for no news of him cometh.'
(a)
[Here the vowel á is repeated melodiously several times in the syllables ká(ri), bhá(rí), pyá(ri) and vá(ri), and also the letters désa are melodiously repeated in the words paradésa, a'désa, and sa désa. Hence the couplet is an instance of upanúgariká vṛitti.]
(b) The many cuckoos, chútakas, shrikes, harsh peacocks, and partridges, when I hear the voices of all these, my heart is filled with agitation, and the army of the God of love violently (assails me.')
347
[Here there is a repetition of the letter k in several syllables, and the whole of the first. line is one long dvandva compound. It is therefore an example of parusha vṛitti.]
(c)
The clouds pour forth rain, and amid them flickers the summer lightning. In all directions are wavelets of water (on the swollen rivers). High surges up love, full of joy, in the hearts of the happy pair.'
[Here the letters s and t are repeated each in several syllables. There is no repetition of melodious letters, nor is there any long compound. Hence it is an instance of kômalá vṛitti.]

Translation. Epilogue.
I have described one hundred and eight ornaments, both verbal and of sense, and have explained them in the vernacular, after consulting various Sanskrit works.
There are many verbal ornaments, arising from the conjunction of letters, but I have only described the six kinds of alliteration, which are those suited to (composition in) the vernacular.
I have composed this new work for the man who is a pandit, expert in the vernacular, and skilled in writing poetry.
I have described the distinguishing characteristics of Heroines and of Heroes, the Indications of Emotion, the States or Conditions, the Sentiments, and the [Permanent Conditions (sthays 1 So in all copies.
