³ Rv. iv. 2, 14; ix. 26, 4; 71, 5, where Pischel, *Vedische Studien*, i, 239-243, considers that the shafts of the chariot are meant (*cf.* Gobhila Gṛhya Sūtra, iii. 4, 31, whence it appears that the chariot-pole, spoken of as having two arms, was forked). The same view regarding the passages cited in n. 2 gives the sense of a stropping apparatus, consisting of two pieces of wood, between which a grindstone moves. *Cf.* Zimmer, *Altindisches Leben*, 252, 255.
