Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

त्रासवैवर्ण्यरुदितैः स्वरभेदः शमोऽपि च ।
जडता च तथा षट् च चत्वारिंशत्प्रकीर्तिताः
trāsavaivarṇyaruditaiḥ svarabhedaḥ śamo 'pi ca |
jaḍatā ca tathā ṣaṭ ca catvāriṃśatprakīrtitāḥ

The line

With fright, change of color, and weeping, a break in the voice, and peace, and torpor, and six: forty-six are declared.

नेपालीमा

त्रास, रङ्ग परिवर्तन, रुदन, स्वरभङ्ग, शान्ति र जडता यी छसहित छयालीस बताइएका छन्।

Where it sits

The bracketed count is forty-six, and the list includes śama (शम), peace. 7.108 had said forty-nine and had not named śama (शम). The two counts remain. Peace is the stable state the bracketed śānta (शान्त) of chapter 6 claimed.
