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-
