qfare: is two-fold:-- (1) One thing occupying different places. (2) Many things occupying the same place by turns.
These two come under पर्याय a subdivision of परिवृत्ति. And (1) exchange of like things. (2) exchange of a superior thing with an inferior
thing. (3) exchange of an interior thing with a superior
thing. These three are the varieties of the second subdivision of aftaler
Thus, we see that two distinct figures of speech पर्याय and परिवृत्ति are combined by हेमचन्द्र into one figure, contrary to the usual practice of all other rhetoricians. We don't see any justification for his combination.
Verse 631 is an instance of qufa: the m ( colour, love ) that was seen on the nether-lip of one woman now occupied the eyes of her co-wife.
The verse 632 is an instance of the exchange of like things : she gives her foot (i. e. kicks the Ashoka tree ) and takes in exchange its tender leaves for her ear-ornament.
In the verses 633 and 634 the exchange is unequal. He gave protection to heaven and took low rank for himself (633 ).
FZIY gave his tottering old body and took, in exchange, eternal fame.
The next figure 34991a includes in it 379f9fgart also. This 31941, of course, must not be a bald inference void of beauty.
In the verse 635 there is a beautiful inference:
