प्रवण्ण (pravaNNa)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
pravaṇṇa, adj.-ppp. (= AMg. pavaṇṇa
semi-MIndic for Skt. prapanna), resorted to: raudrair narair aśubhakarma-m-ati-pravaṇṇaiḥ Mv 〔i.84.3〕 (vs), by violent men who resort too much to evil deeds. So one ms., the rest °pravarṇaiḥ, which makes no sense
Senart em. °vaṇaiḥ, but his note recognizes that the penult is required by meter to be long
he suggests that doubling of of pravaṇa took place m.c. But the AMg. form fits without change.
