47. Comparison or the recognition of likeness, is the cause of an
inferenee from similarity. Such an inference consists in the know-
ledge of the relation between a name and the thing so named. Its
instrument is the knowledge of a likeness. The recollection of the
purport of a statement of resemblance is the operation of that ins-
trument. For example-a person not knowing what is meant by the
word 'gavaya,' having heard from some inhabitant of the forest
that a gavaya is like a cow, goes to the forest. Remembering the
purport of what he has been told, he sees a body like that of a cow.
Then this inference from similarity arises (in his mind), that 'this
is what is meant by the word gavaya.'
48. 'A word [ right assertion ] is the speech of one worthy (of
_confidence). One worthy, is a speaker of the truth. A speech [sen
tence ] is a collection of significant sounds; as, for example, Bring
the cow. ' A significant sound is that which is possessed of power
( to convey a meaning). The power ( of a word) is the appointment,
in the shape of God's will, that such and such an import should be
recognizable from such and such a significant sound.'
