Yathāṃkⲹ (यथासंख्य) refers to one of the 93 ṃk (“figures of speech�) mentioned by Cirañjīva Bhaṭṭācārya (fl. 17th century) in his Kāvyavilāsa and is listed as one of the 89 ٳṃk (figure of speech determined by the sense, as opposed to sound).The figure ⲹٳṃkⲹ (ⲹٳṅkⲹ) has been admitted by almost all the critics starting from Bhāmaha (K.A. II/89) and down to Jagannātha (R.G./P. 642). It has also been defined by Vāmana (IV/317), Viśvanātha (X/103), Mammaṭa (X/164), Jayadeva (C.L.V/92), Appayyadīkṣita (Kuv. P. 237).

Cirañjīva has defined 貹ⲹ —�kramikāṇāṃ kramopātte ⲹٳṅkⲹ� kramānvaye�.—“When the things mentioned in a definite order are connected with the things also existing in order, it is the figure ⲹٳṃkⲹ�. In fact orderly connection among things makes this figure.

Example of the ⲹٳṃkⲹ-alaṃkāra:�

kokānākulayaṃścakorataruṇīvaikalyamunmīlayannambhojāni nimīlayan kumudinīrunmīlayansarvata� |
pānthānākulatā� nayan kulavadhūceta� samullāsaya- nnasta� yāti divāpati� samudaya� yātyeṣa doṣāpati� ||

“Having made perturbed the bird, having made overwhelmed the mate of 䲹첹, making the lotuses contracted and the lilies bloomed on all side, having created anxiety in the travellar, making delighted the heart of a family woman, the sun is going to set the moon is going to rise�.

Note: This verse is taken from the work Mādhavacampū, which is his own composition. In this verse making the perturbed and overwhelming the mate of ; the construction of the lotuses and the blooming of lilies, all these are described in an order. These things are orderly connected with the sun, the lord of the day and the moon the lord of the night. So this is an example of ⲹٳṅkⲹ.
