128.4

punaruktam asādhu sādhur anuvāda iti ayaṃ viśeṣo nopapadyate/ kasmāt? ubhayatra hi pratītārthaḥ śabdo 'bhyasyate caritārthasya śabdasyābhyāsād ubhayam asādhv iti//66//

[Objection]: The distinction that repetition is faulty while reiteration is correct is not tenable. Why? Because in both cases a word whose meaning has already been understood is repeated; since a word whose purpose is fulfilled is repeated, both are faulty. //66
