1 'Is there any favour still greater than this? As (however) on this occasion his Holiness desires to confer a favour, then let this saying of Bharata be (fulfilled).' Ataḥ param, i. e. adhikam. Atra praśnārthe kākur anusandheyā, see p. 264, n. 2. The Bharata here intended must not be confounded with the young prince. He was a holy sage, the director or manager of the gods' dramas, and inventor of theatrical representations in general. He wrote a work containing precepts and rules relating to every branch of dramatic writing, which appears to have been lost, but is constantly quoted by the commentators. He seems to have superintended the exhibition of the drama called Lakshmi-svayamvara (composed by Sarasvati, see p. 28, n. 1) in Indra's heaven. See Vikram., Act III, and middle of Act II, Munina Bharatena yaḥ prayogo bhavatīshu ashṭa-rasāśrayo nibaddhaḥ, &c. It was not unusual to close the plays by quoting one of Bharata's verses; compare the conclusion of the Ratnavali. The commentator supposes that there is here an intentional ambiguity as to whether this verse is spoken in the name of the young prince or of the sage.
2 Let the king exert himself for the welfare of his subjects. Let Sarasvati be honoured among (those who are) mighty in the scriptures [lovers of literature]. Moreover, may the purple-god [Siva], who-is-selfexistent, (and) whose-Energy-is-everywhere-diffused, put an end to my future birth [deliver my soul from passing into another state of being].' Pravartatām=prayatatām. Sarasvati (= Bharati, K.) is the wife of the god Brahma. She is the goddess of speech and eloquence, patroness of the arts and sciences, and inventress of the Sanskrit language. Sarasvatī signifies 'flowing,' and is also applied to a river. Sruti-mahatām, &c., some MSS. have śruti-mahati mahīyasām; K. śruta-mahatam. According to the latter, śruta=śāstra, mahatām=śreshṭhānām. I see no reason why mahatām should not be the gen. pl. of the pres. part. regularly formed from mah, 'to honour.' Sruti-mahatām might then mean 'lovers of literature.' Mahīyatām=pūjyatām, K. Nīla-lohitaḥ, 'blue and red;' i. e. according to K., vāma-bhāge nīlaḥ, dakshina-bhage lohitaḥ, 'on the

left side blue, on the right side red.' Siva is usually represented as borne on a bull, his colour, as well as that of the animal he rides, being white, to denote the purity of Justice over which he presides. In his destroying capacity, he is characterized by the quality tamas (see p. 301, n. 1) and named Rudra, Kāla, &c., when his colour is said to be purple or black. 'In the beginning of the Kalpa, as Brahma purposed to create a son, a youth of purple complexion [blue and red, nila lohita] appeared, crying and running about [ru, dru, whence Rudra],' Vishnu-p. p. 58. Some refer this name to the colour of his throat (see p. 257, n. 2). Parigatasaktiḥ; prāptā saktiḥ Pārvatī yena sa tathoktaḥ. Hence, Sakti Pārvatī, Siva's wife. The wives of the deities were supposed to personify their energy or active power. Ātma-bhū, although properly a name of Brahmā, is applied equally to Vishnu and Siva by those who give the preference to these deities. Exemption from further transmigration and absorption into the divine Soul is the summum bonum of Hindu philosophy (cf. p. 184, n. 3 at the end). Kālidāsa indulges the religious predilections of his fellow-townsmen by beginning and ending the play with a prayer to Siva, who had a large temple in Ujjayinī, the city of king Vikramaditya, and abode of the poet. Both actors and spectators would probably repeat the prayer after the speaker and appropriate it to themselves.
