The Vision of Śiva5.70

5.70
न सर्वेषां विशेषाणां प्रत्यक्षेऽपि भवेद् ग्रहः । विशेषपूर्वताध्यक्षेऽविशेषोऽस्त्यनुमानतः ॥७०॥
na sarveṣāṃ viśeṣāṇāṃ pratyakṣe'pi bhaved grahaḥ | viśeṣapūrvatādhyakṣe'viśeṣo'styanumānataḥ
— not ; — of all particulars ; — even in perception ; — is there grasping ; — the priority of the particular ; — in perception ; — non-particularity ; — there is ; — through inference

Not even in perception is there a grasping of all particulars; (and though) the particular has priority in perception, (a residual) non-particularity (remains) — (which is just what is supplied) through inference (so neither pramāṇa is self-sufficient).
