def.2 [Accord. to Golius, سَوَى, Verbal.Noun سِوًى, signifies He intended, or proposed to himself: this he says as on the authority of the KL, in which only the Verbal.Noun is mentioned with the explanation قصد وآهنگ كردن: and to this, Freytag adds the authority of Meyd; and also that the verb governs the thing which is its objective complement in the accus. case.
