辫峁涐梗峁环别鈥攊n the back; 尘补峁噄-indra鈥攍ike a sapphire (鈥渢he king of gems鈥�); mahasi鈥攚hich has an effulgence; pratibimbam鈥攖he reflection; eva鈥攐苍濒测; 办别艣补蝉测补鈥攐蹿 hair; 办别艣补鈥攐蹿 hair; 辫补谤颈艣别峁岣�鈥攖he end; iti bhrame峁嘺鈥攂ecause of this mistake; 耻濒濒腻蝉补测补苍迟墨鈥攑lacing upwards; 补蝉补办峁泃鈥拦别辫别补迟别诲濒测; 补峁単耻濒颈-pallavena鈥攚ith the buds in the form of fingers; 蝉腻鈥攕丑别; vyagra鈥攚as confused; 诲丑墨岣�鈥攚hose perception; ajani鈥攂别肠补尘别; 办别艣补va-办别艣补鈥攖he hair of Ke艣ava; bandhe鈥攚hile binding.
While styling Ke艣ava鈥檚 hair with her blossom-like fingers, a 驳辞辫墨, mistakenly thinking that His hair鈥檚 reflection on His back, which shines like a sapphire, was the actual ends of His hair, repeatedly attempted to take the reflection of His hairs upward. (础濒补峁卥腻谤补-办补耻蝉迟耻产丑补 8.276)
谤奴辫补办补-pratham膩ti艣ayoktyor 膩h膩rya-bhramatv膩t t膩bhy膩m asya bheda岣�.
The difference between 产丑谤腻苍迟颈尘腻苍 on one hand and 谤奴辫补办补 and the first variety of 补迟颈艣补测辞办迟颈 on the other is that in 谤奴辫补办补 and in 补迟颈艣补测辞办迟颈, the perceiver knows that the fancy is an imagination.
Commentary:
笔补峁囜笉颈迟补-谤腻箩补 闯补驳补苍苍腻迟丑补 illustrates 产丑谤腻苍迟颈尘腻苍,
kanaka-drava-k膩nti-k膩ntay膩 milita峁� r膩mam ud墨k峁a k膩ntay膩 |
capal膩-yuta-v膩rida-bhram膩n nan峁泃e 肠腻迟补办补-potakair vane ||鈥淣辞迟颈肠颈苍驳 搁腻尘补 with His beloved 厂墨迟腻, who is lovely with her radiance that resembles a flow of gold, the young 肠腻迟补办补 birds danced in the forest because they mistakingly perceived a cloud with lightning鈥� (Rasa-驳补峁単腻诲丑补谤补).
闯补驳补苍苍腻迟丑补 says that if the last clause were reworded as follows, it would illustrate a 产丑谤腻苍迟颈尘腻苍-dhvani, 鈥渢he young 肠腻迟补办补 birds, whose expanded wings were like new shoots, became joyful in the forest.鈥�[1]
This is another example:

膩d膩tum avadhi-lekha峁� pravi艣ati bhavana峁� niv膩rya sahay膩nt墨岣� ||鈥淲hen She saw moonrays go through the windows, She became alarmed: She thought that the house was going to catch on fire. That bewildered girl rushed into the house to retrieve His love letter while preventing Her friends from following Her inside (so that they would not be harmed by the fire)鈥� (础濒补峁卥腻谤补-kaustubha 5.33).
Kavikar峁嘺p奴ra shows the verse to illustrate vipralambha (love in separation).
