Prakrit Verses in Sanskrit Works on Poetics
Ubhayālamkāras (1. Upamā 2. Sāmyam 3. Melitam and 4. Samuccaya) are mutually connected and inseparably mixed together giving rise to the figure JHUIİHR-VIR.

194. Bhoja cites this stanza as an example of one of the varieties of Rasālamkāra
samkara, called Arthālamkāra-pradhāna. After citing the stanza he remarks : अत्र रतिरसाभासमनुभूय (?मभिभूय) हेतुरर्थालंकारप्राधान्येन प्रतीयते । - V. प्र., पृ. ४५८.
Bhoja cites this very stanza in SK (p.576) as an example of Ratirūpena nāyaka-pratiyogişu rasābhāsaḥ.
Regarding the text of this stanza Handiqui's (pp.112-113) discussion deserves to be reproduced in full : "The last verse in Goldschmidt's Anhang, cited in an imperfect form his Msc, is variously read, and has not found general acceptance. It is not explained by the South Indian commentators, nor by Kulanātha and Rāmadāsa. It is, however, included in SC 15.66' with the remark that it is omitted by Sāhasānka and Kulanātha, leading one to suppose that it was probably explained by Lokanātha and Srīnivāsa, the two other commentators quoted by name in SC. The verse is also cited in a mutilated form in Bhoja's Sarasvatikanthabharaṇa 5.13 (NS ed.) and Narendraprabha's Alankāramahodadhi (p. 97,GOS) as an example of rasābhāsa But not a few commentators from different parts of India seem to have rejected it because of the unpleasant idea involving Sītā in the description."
