atra bhṛṅgiriṭer vikṛtākāreṇa vikaṭa-paścād-gamanena pāhi pāhi pāhīty atra varṇa-vyatyāsa-bhāṣaṇena janitasya paśupati-hāsasyānya-rasānaṅgatayā mukhyaṃ bhaya-hāsyajam |

Here, because the laughter of Paśupati—caused by Bhṛṅgiriṭi's deformed appearance, his clumsy backward walking, and his uttering letters topsy-turvy as in 'Save me, save me, save me!'—is not subordinate to any other aesthetic sentiment, it is the primary [variety] arising from fear and laughter.
