 MOURNING,  s.
  (Sorrow,  lamentation) शोकः,  शाचनं,  अनुशोचनं
खेदः,  विलपनं,  विलापः,  परिदेवनं -ना,  रोदनं,  रुदनं,  क्रन्दनं,  आक्रन्दनं, 
दुःखं.
— (Dress worn by mourners) अमङ्गलवेषः,  अशुभवेषः, 
अमङ्गलकालीनवेषः,  अशुभकालीनवेषः,  शोकमूचकवेषः. According
to the Hindu notion defilement is contracted by the
death of a relation
 hence the following terms,  expressive
of a season of mourning,  imply a season of impurity
as,  अशौचं,  आशौचं,  कालाशौचं,  अघाहः
 ‘one in such a state, ’
आशौची -चिनी -चि (न्).
