Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa
शृङ्गाराद्धि भवेद्धास्यो रौद्राच्च करुणो रसः ।
वीराच्चैवाद्भुतोत्पत्तिर्बीभत्साच्च भयानकः śṛṅgārāddhi bhaveddhāsyo raudrācca karuṇo rasaḥ |
vīrāccaivādbhutotpattirbībhatsācca bhayānakaḥ
The line
From the erotic comes the comic, and from the furious the compassionate rasa (रस). From the heroic comes the arising of the wondrous, and from the disgusting the fearful.
नेपालीमा
शृङ्गारबाट हास्य आउँछ र रौद्रबाट करुण रस आउँछ। वीरबाट अद्भुतको उदय हुन्छ र बीभत्सबाट भयानक आउँछ।
Where it sits
The prose before the verse names four rasa (रस) states as the causes of arising: śṛṅgāra (शृङ्गार), raudra (रौद्र), vīra (वीर), and bībhatsa (बीभत्स). The other four come from them. The line reads śṛṅgārāddhi (शृङ्गाराद्धि), from śṛṅgāra (शृङ्गार). 6.40 and 6.41 say how.
Split: śṛṅgārāddhi (शृङ्गाराद्धि) bhaveddhāsyo (भवेद्धास्यो) raudrācca (रौद्राच्च) karuṇo (करुणो) rasaḥ (रसः) / vīrāccaivādbhutotpattirbībhatsācca (वीराच्चैवाद्भुतोत्पत्तिर्बीभत्साच्च) bhayānakaḥ (भयानकः)
