[Padmakara-bhatta (Padmábharana, 212) thus defines this figure :Jo na kúrana utkarsha kau
kiyo sô kalpita hétu 1 Padumákara kavi kahata imi
praudhôkati hai chétu 11 1568 11 Yatha:Îsa sisa ké chanda sau
amala athau' yama i Surasari taļa ké barapha té.
dhavala suyasa tua Ráma 11 156b 11 When a thing which is not the cause of excess is stated as an imaginary reason for it, it is the figure of Bold Assertion, as for example: -
By the light of) the moon on Siva's head, is (thy glory) without spot for the whole eight watches of the day; from the (reflection of the snow) on the banks of the Ganges, is thy glory ever fair and white, O Rama.' So also Raghunatha (Rasika-môhana, 167):Jaha varnata utkarsha ké
hétu, hétu kou ani Tahá', su-kavi, praudhokti yaha jaga mé kahata bakháni | 1560 11 And Giridhara-dâsa (Bharati-bhúshana, 257) :Káraja-gata utkarsha kau
jó na hetu, tehi héta 1 Kara varaniya praudhokti kavi mána tásu kahi déta 11 1560 11 ]

Sambhavanalankara. "Jau* y. ha, tau yê'," kahai
samhbhávaná vichára ! Vaktá hótau sésha jau',
tau lahatau guna pára il 157 11 Translation.
The Supposition. [Not in Sahitya-darpana.]
When 'if' (introducing a protasis) is followed by then' (introducing an apodosis), it is to be considered an instance of the supposition, as for example: -
If the serpent of eternity had been able to speak, then he might have been able to describe fully thy virtues. [No one else could do so.')

Mithyadhyavasityalankara. Mithyddhyavasiti kahata kachhu
mithya-Kalpana ritil Kara mai- párada jau rahai
karai' navodha príti | 158 Translation.
The False Supposition. [Not in Sahitya-darpana.]
It is False Supposition (when the impossibility of a thing is illustrated) by making it depend upon an impossible contingency, as for example: -
When a man can retain quicksilver in his hand, he may expect a newly-wedded bride to shew him affection.'
