    (cf. Gron. Diatr. Stat. c. 6, p. 72 sq., and Hand ad h. l.; Quint. 7, 10, 9 Spald.; id. 10, 2, 11 Frotscher; Suet. Tib. 57 Bremi; Tac. G. 9 Passow; id. Agr. 10 Walch; Bessel, Misc. Phil. Crit. 1, 5 al.), is perh. solved in the foll. remarks: Such is the affinity of the sound of ŭ and ĭ in Lat., that when they stand in two successive syllables, separated by the semivowel l, the u is accommodated to the i. Thus, from consŭl arises consĭlĭum; from exsŭl, exsĭlĭum; from famŭl, famĭlĭa; so the terminations ĭlis and ŭlus, not ŭlis and ĭlus (these few, mutĭlus, nubĭlus, pumĭlus, [p. 181] rutĭlus, appear to be founded in the u of the first syllable; but for the heteroclites gracila, sterila, etc., a nom. sing. gracilus, sterilus, etc., is no more needed than for Bacchanal orum, a nom. Bacchanalium, and for carioras, Manil. ap. Varr. L. L. 7, § 28 MSS., a form cariorus, a, um); and so it is also explained, that from the orig. facul and difficul arose faculter, facultas; difficulter, difficultas; not facŭlis, facŭliter, facŭlītas; difficŭlis, difficŭlĭter, difficŭlĭtas; but facilis, faciliter, facilitas; difficilis, difficiliter, difficilitas. This principle, applied to the derivatives of simul, shows the correctness of the orthography simulo, simulatio, simulator, with similis, similitudo, similitas; adsimulo, adsimulatio, adsimulator, with adsimilis; dissimulo, dissimulatio, dissimulator, with dissimilis and dissimilitudo, etc.; cf. Diom. p. 362 P.: Similo non dicimus, sed similis est. Sane dixerunt auctores simulat per u, hoc est homoiazei. But since the copyists knew that the more rare signif. of making like was not generically connected in the words simulare and adsimulare with the more usual one of imitating, dissembling, they wrote, where the former was required, sim i lo, adsim i lo, and gave occasion thereby to the entirely unfounded supposition that the ancients wrote, for the signif. making like, similo, adsimilo; for that of imitating, feigning, simulo, adsimulo Fr.—Hence, assĭmŭlātus ( ads-), a, um, P. a.

  • 43 गन्धर्व


    gandharvá
    m. a Gandharva <though in later times the Gandharvas are regarded as a class, yet in RV. rarely more than one is mentioned;

    he is designated as the heavenly Gandharva ( divyág- RV. IX, 86, 36 and X, 139, 5),
    andﾠ is alsoﾠ called Viṡvā-vasu ( RV. X, 85, 21 and 22;139, 4 and 5) andﾠ Vāyu-keṡa (in pl. RV. III, 38, 6);
    his habitation is the sky, orﾠ the region of the air andﾠ the heavenly waters
    ( RV. I, 22, 14; VIII, 77, 5; IX, 85, 12; 86, 36; X, 10, 4 AV. II, 2, 3);
    his especial duty is to guard the heavenly Soma RV. IX, 83, 4 and 85, 12,
    which the gods obtain through his intervention RV. AV. VII, 73, 3 ; cf. RV. I, 22, 14 ;
    it is obtained for the human race by Indra, who conquers the Gandharva andﾠ takes it by force ( RV. VIII, 1, 11 and 77, 5);
    the heavenly Gandharva is supposed to be a good physician, because the Soma is considered as the best medicine;
    possibly, however, the word Soma originally denoted not the beverage so called, but the moon, andﾠ the heavenly Gandharva may have been the genius orﾠ tutelary deity of the moon;
    in one passage RV. IX, 86, 36 the heavenly Gandharva andﾠ the Soma are identified;
    he is alsoﾠ regarded as one of the genii who regulate the course of the Sun's horses
    i, 163, 2; X, 177, 2; cf. 135, 5 ;
    he knows andﾠ makes known the secrets of heaven andﾠ divine truths generally
    ( X, 139, 5 and 6 AV. II, 1, 2; XX, 128, 3 VS. XI, 1; XXXII, 9);
    he is the parent of the first pair of human beings, Yama andﾠ Yamī RV. X, 10, 4),
    andﾠ has a peculiar mystical power over women andﾠ a right to possess them RV. X, 85, 21 and 22; 40 and 41 ;
    for this reason he is invoked in marriage ceremonies AV. XIV, 2, 35 and 36 ;
    ecstatic states of mind andﾠ possession by evil spirits are supposed to be derived from the heavenly Gandharva (cf. - gṛihīta, - graha);
    the Gandharvas as a class have the same characteristic features as the one Gandharva;
    they live in the sky RV. AV. ṠBr. XIV,
    guard the Soma RV. IX, 113, 3 ṠBr. III AitBr. I, 27,
    are governed by Varuṇa (just as the Apsarasas are governed by Soma) ṠBr. XIII ĀṡvṠr. X, 7, 3,
    know the best medicines AV. VIII, 7, 23 VS. XII, 98,
    regulate the course of the asterisms ( AV. XIII, 1, 23 BhP. IV, 29, 21 ;
    hence twenty-seven are mentioned VS. IX, 7),
    follow after women andﾠ are desirous of intercourse with them (AV. ṠBr. III) ;
    as soon as a girl becomes marriageable, she belongs to Soma, the Gandharvas, andﾠ Agni Gṛihyās. II, 19 f. Pañcat. Suṡr. ;
    the wives of the Gandharvas are the Apsarasas
    (cf. gandharvâ̱psarás),
    andﾠ like them the Gandharvas are invoked in gambling with dice AV. VII, 109, 5 ;
    they are alsoﾠ feared as evil beings together with the Rākshasas, Kimīdins, Piṡācas, etc., amulets being worn as a protection against them ( AV. Suṡr.);
    they are said to have revealed the Vedas to Vāc
    ( ṠBr. III ; cf. PārGṛ. II, 12, 2),
    andﾠ are called the preceptors of the Ṛishis ṠBr. XI ;
    Purūravas is called among them ( ib.);
    in epic poetry the Gandharvas are the celestial musicians orﾠ heavenly singers (cf. RV. X, 177, 2)
    who form the orchestra at the banquets of the gods, andﾠ they belong together with the Apsarasas to Indra's heaven, sharing alsoﾠ in his battles;
    Yājñ. I, 71 MBh. Hariv. etc..; cf. RTL. p. 238 ;
    in the more systematic mythology the Gandharvas constitute one of the classes into which the higher creation is divided
    (i.e. gods, manes, Gandharvas AV. XI, 5, 2 ;
    orﾠ gods, Asuras, Gandharvas, men TS. VII, 8, 25, 2 ;
    cf. ṠBr. X ;
    orﾠ gods, men, Gandharvas, Apsarasas, Sarpas, andﾠ manes AitBr. III, 31, 5 ;
    for other enumerations cf. Nir. III, 8 Mn. I, 37 RTL. p. 237 ;
    III, 196; VII, 23; XII, 47 Nal. etc..);
    divine andﾠ human Gandharvas are distinguished
    ( TUp. II, 8 the divine orﾠ Deva-Gandharvas are enumerated MBh. I, 2550 ff. and 4810 ff.);
    another passage names 11 classes of Gandharvas (TĀr. I, 9, 3) ;
    the chief orﾠ leader of the Gandharvas is named Citra-ratha Bhag. X, 26 ;
    they are called the creatures of Prajāpati Mn. I, 37 ;
    orﾠ of Brahmā. Hariv. 11793 orﾠ of Kaṡyapa 11850 ;
    orﾠ of the Munis MBh. I, 2550 Hariv. 11553 ;
    orﾠ of Prādhā MBh. I, 2556 ;
    orﾠ of Arishṭā Hariv. 234 VP. I, 21 orﾠ of Vāc ( PadmaP.);
    with Jainas the Gandharvas constitute one of the eight classes of the Vyantaras>;
