dhīrādhīra-guṇopetā — the heroine endowed with the traits of both the composed (dhīrā) and the agitated (adhīrā); dhīrādhīrā iti — by the name 'dhīrādhīrā'; kathyate — she is called.
जो नायिका धीरा और अधीरा — दोनों के गुणों से युक्त होती है, वह 'धीराधीरा' कही जाती है।
A heroine who carries in her both tempers — the composed dhīrā and the agitated adhīrā — is called dhīrādhīrā. The name simply joins the two traits she holds together.
जिस नायिका में धीरा और अधीरा दोनों के गुण हों, उसे 'धीराधीरा' कहते हैं।
In this prakaraṇa the heroine-types are set by how a slighted lover voices her jealous anger (īrṣyā): the dhīrā masks it behind composed, indirect, cutting speech, while the adhīrā lets it break out openly. The dhīrādhīrā does both, so her name is a dvandva of the two. Source text prints 'guṇopteā'; read guṇopetā.
