________________ 217 (P. 377. A. 6. S. 13. red thing should not become red is also a contradication. These contradictions based on colours are treated seperately by HFAZ and others under the figure Bag which is defined by AFHC as: - "a91HEITETERI JETCAST: " Thus we see that seven figures treated independently by other rhetoricians have been included under the figure विरोध by हेमचन्द्र, on the plea that such minor varieties, if treated seperately, would land us into a bewildering infinity of figures of speech. सहोक्तिः This figure is based on the idea of stating two things with a common characteristic in one sentence with the help of the word he (or its synonyms ). The figure requires that the idea of two ( or more ) things being thus brought together in one sentence must have some striking feature, and this striking feature is usually found in bringing together one abstract and one concrete thing. For instance, in the illustration of Agife given below ( verse 607 ) the idea that a fell down along with tears of his soldiers is really pictutesque, and is based on the idea of bringing together the actual falling of u and the consequent grief of the soldiers, which latter is an abstract idea. In the verse 608, another instance of atte, we find the same thing. The nights have become long along with my breathing.' The length of night is as regards time and the length of breathing is connected with space. Similarly, full-moon nights have become pale along with my limbs. i. e. I have become pale ( and emaciated) as I have to pass the full-moon nights in sleeplessness. 28 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
