Entry 3719, Page 138, Col. 2
(upanisevin, upanisevin)
upanisevin¦, adj., f. °nī (= Pali id.; to Skt. upaniṣe- vate, Pali °sevati), serving, waiting upon: read akṣudra- sattvop arisevinī sadā, in Mv ii.57.3; 59.23, with Pali Jāt. v.399.2 (same vs) apāpasattūpanisev°. The mss. read °sattvopari° or °sattva-pari°, unmetr.; Senart em. °sattvā pari° in 57.3, °sattva-prati° in 59.23. But ri for ni is an easy corruption, and the -o- (required by meter), together with the Pali, confirms our reading.
