But the sense of दिदीपे or 'shone' is far-fetched, though Vāmana is disposed to take it. It seems preferable to regard आस in these instances as equivalent to बभूव, either taking it, as Śākaṭāyana does, as an indeclinable तिडन्तप्रति- रूपकमव्ययम्, or considering it, as Vallabha does, as an ungrammatical form used against the rules of gram- mar, प्रामादिकः प्रयोगः; see Malli. on Ku.1.35).
