abhihvāra

tune, sin; e. g. Atharv.: yo asya samidhaṃ veda kṣatriyeṇa samā-

hitām . nābhihvāre padaṃ ni dadhāti sa mṛtyave ‘he does

not put his foot into misfortune (or into sin which leads)

to death’. (Roth and Whitney in their edition of the

Atharv. write abhihvāra; but the former gives in a quotation

of this passage in his Dictionary the form abhihvara which

seems less correct.) E. hvṛ with abhi, kṛt aff. ghañ.
