Chapter 16: The Pastimes of the Lord in His Childhood and Youth. Text 60

'dvitÄ«ya' Å›abda — vidheya tÄhÄ paá¸ila samÄse
'laká¹£mÄ«ra samatÄ' artha karila vinÄÅ›e

 dvitÄ«ya Å›abda - the word dvitÄ«ya ('second'); vidheya - the unknown; tÄhÄ - that; paá¸ila - joined; samÄse - in the compound word; laká¹£mÄ«ra - with Laká¹£mÄ«; samatÄ - equality; artha - meaning; karila - became; vinÄÅ›e - lost.


Text

“Because the word ‘dvitīya’ [‘second’] is the unknown, in its combination in this compound word the intended meaning of equality with Lakṣmī is lost.
