    apasphurat Tatpur. m. f. n. (-n-ntī-t) The same as apasphura;

    anapasphurat ‘not injured, unhurt’; also as an epithet of a

    cow (according to Sāyaṇa on Ṛgv. 4. 42. 10., viz. anavahiṃ-

    sita). Mahidhara, however, explains the word apasphurat

    in the corresponding verse of the Vājas. 7. 10. ‘going to

    another’ i. e. running away, and anapasphurat ‘not going to

    another’ i. e. not running away. This latter sense being more

    congenial with the context, it is probably not unsafe to

    infer that the words apasphur and apasphura will also have to

    be taken in Mahīdhara's meaning of apasphurat, and anapa-

    sphur, anapasphura qq. vv. in Mahīdhara's meaning of anapa-

    sphurat.--E. sphur with apa, kṛt aff. śatṛ.
