Abstract
This article is the second in a series in which we present the Sanskrit text of selected paddhati s (sections) of the Sūktimuktāvalī (smā), 1 together with an annotated verse translation. In this instalment two paddhati s that are related to the theme of the abhisārikā , the young woman who sallies out (usually at night) for a secret meeting with a lover, are presented. In two appendices we discuss this topos and its early development in classical Indian poetry, especially in Sanskrit and Prakrit, also taking theoretical literature of nāṭyaśāstra , lexicography, kāmaśāstra , and alaṃkāraśāstra into consideration.
