    abhikhyayādava Karmadh. m. (-vaḥ) The celebrated Yādava,

    i. e. Kṛṣṇa; Hemachandra (in the definition of matsya):

    matsyo mīnāntare mīne virāṭe'bhikhyayādave (thus the printed

    ed. of Hemach. nān. and the Mss. of the E. I. H. and of

    the R. A. S.; in several Mss. of the Viśvaprak., belonging

    to the E. I. H. and the R. S., this verse runs: °°°virā-

    ṭābhikhyayādave, but as this reading is clearly wrong and as

    a correction virāṭābhikhye yādave would be at variance with

    the metre, it must be assumed that it ought to be the same

    as in the text of Hemachandra). E. abhikhya and yādava.
