manoharam (Dandin; the cause of these paradoxical phenomena is
the autumn weather: "The geese are intoxicated without having
drunk, the sky is clear without having been cleaned, the waters are
pure and have not been ven grace: the world is so lovely!"). (4)

and yet my leaves are green; / My youth is spent, and yet I am not
old" (Chidock Tichborne; written just before his execution at the
age of twenty-eight). (5) See svābhāvika.

your lip is full colored and not a touch of lipstick"). (4) "Lo, lo!
