Adma-sad. — This expression (lit. ‘sitting at the meal’), found

several times in the Rigveda,¹ is usually rendered ‘guest at the

feast,’ but Geldner² adduces reasons to show that it means ‘a

fly,’ so called because of its settling on food. [Footnote] 1) i. 124, 4; vi. 30, 3; vii. 83, 7;

viii. 44, 29; adma-sadvan, vi. 4, 4. [Footnote] 2) Vedische Studien, 2, 179, 180; but
