opposed to सर्वतोमुख or (the sacrificer) who
by shaving off his hairs, makes his scull, through its bald-
ness, resemble the face and thus becomes as it were ‘face
all over’ (according to the comm. of Sāyaṇa on Śatapa-
thabr. II. 6. 3. 16, which unmutilated runs thus: अयंशब्द-
स्त्वर्थे । अयं तु पुरुषो यजमानोऽन्यतोमुखः । अन्यशब्द एकश-
