अपूर्व्य I. (ved.) Tatpur. m. f. n. (-व्यः-व्या-व्यम्) Not referring
to, not being in, not visible in, what is prior or has
existed before
e. g. उषस्, dawn, ‘since it is not seen in the
night-time which precedes it’
hence also: new, not made
or existed before, as hymns (‘which have never been com-
posed before’), or as Agni (as he is ever new through his
splendour’) &c. E. अ neg. and पूर्व्य (referring &c. to what
precedes or is prior).
II. m. f. n. (-र्व्यः-र्व्या-र्व्यम्) Worth of what has not existed
before, deserving what is extraordinary or excellent (viz.
the Soma-drink), an epithet of Vāyu (according to Sāyaṇa,
who explains the word in the Ṛgv. verse: त्वं नो वायवे-
षामपूर्व्यः सोमानां प्रथमः पीतिमर्हसि, in this way: न वि-
द्यते पूर्वं यस्मात्तत्पानमपूर्वम् । तदर्हतीत्यपूर्व्यः--comp. Pāṇ.
V. 1. 67.--
but as the word is udātta on the first syllable
the correctness of his interpretation, seems doubtful
the
word might well be, and have the meaning of, the Tatpur.
also in the quoted verse. E. अपूर्व, taddh. aff. यत्.
