domineering, highhandedness
- c. 1180, Khāqānī, “Qaṣīda 8”, in دیوان خاقانی‎:
  مرا از بعد پنجه ساله اسلام
  نزیبد چون صلیبی بند بر پا
  روم ناقوس بوسم زین تحکم
  شوم زنار بندم زین تعدا
  ma-rā az ba'd-i panjah sāla islām
  na-zēbad čūn salībī band bar pā
  rawam nāqūs bōsam z-īn tahakkum
  šawam zunnār band-am z-īn ta'adda
  After fifty years of Islam for me,
  I do not deserve crucifying chains on my feet.
  I shall go kiss the church-bell out of this highhandedness,
  I shall become a girdle-wearer out of this oppression.
  (Classical Persian transliteration)
