Note 309 — Chapter XIII · THE PÁṆINI-DARŚANA.[307]

Edward B. (Edward Byles) Cowell translation

Śabdánuśásana, if judged by the apparent sense of Páṇini, ii. 2, 14, would be a wrong compound; but it is not so, because ii. 2, 14 must be interpreted in the sense of ii. 3, 66, whence it follows that the compound would only be wrong if there were an agent expressed as well as an object, i.e., if such a word as ácháryeṇa followed. In the example given, we cannot say áścharyo godoho śikshitena gopálena (as it would violate ii. 2, 14), neither can we say áścharyo gaváṃ doho' śikshitasya gopálasya (as it would violate ii. 3, 66).
