"Nirviśantī" means experiencing. / Here, in "Vaikuṇṭha abandons Śrī for your sake like the moon abandons moonlight at dawn," there is a simile. / In "a streamless shower of nectar," there is a metaphor. / For here, all properties pertaining to a shower of nectar are present in Lakṣmī; only the relation to a stream does not exist. Thus, by means of the exclusion of a single quality belonging to the standard of comparison, an imposition consisting in the affirmation of all the remaining qualities belonging to the standard of comparison is understood, just as in "This man is a handless elephant." / Therefore, in this verse, there is a combination of two ornaments: simile and metaphor, / because they depend purely on what is expressed and because they are independent of each other. / With regard to the verse beginning "taduttiṣṭha," however, taking recourse to the variety of simile consisting of a compounded simile in "kamalekṣaṇe" ("lotus-eyed"), and combining it with the previously mentioned pair of ornaments, one should see an indication of the direction for exemplifying a combination of many ornaments.
