Only one thing might be said of him with certitude: he tamed the language like none other and was more alive to his "times" and his literary, inter-personal, romantic, religio-philosophical and political environment than any prince, philosopher or priest ever since. In my view, whoever he may have been, he was an unjustifiably oppressed individual like King Wen who wrote the judgments on the hexagrams and provided the explanations of their images and the Later Heaven arrangement of the Yi Jing, the Canon of Change. Whose terse lines lie entangled in the colophon Words come asunder blown on road side-table Debris of wanton collisions intone Long-gone ages singe the stylo his work shone Who knows what diamond crumbs spill disable Whose terse lines lie entangled in the colophon Sans case-endings morphemes participial pun Regimented feet in seven steps enable Debris of wanton collisions intone Who confined meaning in drumbeat phoneme moan Lest envy upper-caste knowledge expose enable Whose terse lines lie entangled in the colophon None know who he was nor what age saw he sun Savants pat cheeks his lines to render readable Debris of wanton collisions intone While lordly conferees seek to feather nests own His sculpted riddles tease meaning and jumble Whose terse lines lie entangled in the colophon Debris of wanton collisions intone * Thiru=Sacred; KURAL, meaning "short" or epigrammatic composition in the form of couplets (1330: ten kurals allotted to each topic in three books with a short introduction), composed and ordered according to the rules of a strict classical prosodical pattern: the "venba" metre while adhering to complex rhetorical features, such as, alliteration, assonance, initial-rhymes and ellipses. The author was known as Thiru-VALLUVAR. One of the earliest commentaries on the Kural, still extant, was made by a Tamil scholar PARIMELALAKAR during the 13th century. (c) T. Wignesan - Paris, 2017
