    plain face or mouth. 2 Having the face averted.

    II. Avyayībh. (-kham) 1 Except the face or mouth. 2 With-

    out a face or mouth. [The word is udātta on the last syl-

    lable. Beginners may notice that the meaning I. 1. follows

    from Pāṇ. VI. 2. 177. which rule is given as an exception to

    VI. 2. 168., the meaning I. 2. from VI. 2. 186. which rule is

    given as an exception to the word dhruva of VI. 2. 177--

    ‘averted’ not being the constant condition of a face--and

    the meanings II. 1. 2. also from VI. 2. 186. which is, then,

    an exception to VI. 2. 33.; comp. Patanjali to VI. 2. 186. kima-
