    abhiṣāvakīy denom. parasm. (-yati) To have a desire for one

    who presses out the juice of the Soma plant. [This denom. is

    an example to the Vārtt. na vānupasargatvāt to Pāṇ. VIII. 3. 65;

    the latter Sūtra enjoins that s of the rad. su (ṣuñ) when pre-

    ceded by certain prefixes, e. g. by the upasarga abhi, becomes

    ṣ; e. g. abhiṣuṇoti; thereupon a Vārtt. (nāmadhātostu pratiṣe-

    dhaḥ) observes that if a denomin. is formed of a deriv. of su

    (e. g. sāvakīy of sāvaka) and such a denom. is preceded by a

    prefix like abhi, the change of s into ṣ does not take place;

    thus sāvakīy when prefixed with abhi, remains, for in-

    stance, abhi sāvakīyati; the mentioned Vārtt. na vā° then

    limits the generality of this restriction by adding that s re-

    mains unchanged, only if e. g. abhi is not upasarga to su; for abhi

    being upasarga to su in the derivat. abhiṣāvaka, s becomes

    ṣ not only in the latter, but also in its denom. abhiṣāva-

    kīy; the case being different from that of abhi sāvakī-

    yati where abhi is not upasarga to su but to sāvakīy;

    forms like abhisāvakīy or parisāvakīy are therefore not

    simple denom., but must, like other radicals with upasar-

    gas prefixed, be looked for under the simple form, i. e. under

    sāvakīy. Patanj.: nāmadhātostu pratiṣedho vaktavyaḥ . sāvaka-

    micchati . abhi sāvakīyati . pari sāvakīyati .. (Vārtt.:
