me overall; / With floweres sweet embroidered was it all; / As for to
speak of gum, or herb, or tree, / Comparison may none y-maked be"
(Chaucer). A more likely interpretation is that poetry is implicitly
compared to yoga through the alification providing relaxation
of all the senses". We have followed the latter interpretation in
giving the English example: the absence of a proper object is mentioned
only to suggest that Per Hansa's wife has supra-feminine qualities.

note into the self-congratulatory deliberations. In a hectoring speech,
he advised the banks to improve their capital position ..." (Arthur
Schlesinger, Jr.). (5) The point here turns upon a rather flimsy
grammatical exegesis. "In a hectoring speech" must be taken to
mean "in a speech in which he behaved himself like Hector", as the
Sanskrit is taken to mean "he behaved himself like Sahasrayudha".
"Himself" becomes the subject of the comparison as grammatical
object of the verb "behave" and parallel to "Hector". Hence the
ellipsis. Many of Mammaţa's classifications are similarly far-fetched.
