प्रसह्य INDC.? / mfn ?

A

I WOULD LIKE प्रसह्य TO BE INDC. HERE. SEE APTE
prasahya प्रसह्य ind. 1 Forcibly, violently, by force; प्रसह्य मणिमुद्धरेन्मकरवक्त्रदंष्ट्राङ्कुरात् Bh.2.4; Śi.1.27. -2 Exceedingly, much. -3 Having conquered or won; नाह- मिच्छामि भीष्मेण गृहीतां त्वां प्रसह्य वै Mb.5.175.6; M.1. -4 Instantly, at once; परस्य भूयान् विवरे$भियोगः प्रसह्य संरक्षण- मात्मरन्ध्रे Ki.16.23. -5 Necessarily, absolutely. -Comp. -कारिन् a. acting with violence. -चौरः a plunderer, highwayman. -हरणम् violent or forcible seizure, plundering.

THIS MAKES PERFECT SENSE IN CONTEXT HERE. BUT THEN THERE IS NO WAY TO EXPLAIN THE ABSENCE OF VOWEL SANDHI BETWEEN प्रसह्य इव - NO REASON FOR THIS WORD TO BE प्रगृह्य - AND YET IF WE TAKE IT AS SANDHI FOR प्रसह्यः (nom, sg., m.) THEN THE CONCERNS BELOW STILL APPLY. MAYBE THE TEXT IS BAD?

प्रसह्य mfn. to be conquered or resisted etc. ; प्रसह्य mfn. capable of being conquered or resisted (infinitive mood with pass. sense)
\
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN प्रसह्यः AND शक्यः HERE? ‘is able to be conquered (प्रसह्यः), as it were (इव ), is able (शक्यः ) also (अपि ?) to be smitten (मर्दितुम् )” ?????
AND YET शक्यः CAN ALSO JUST MEAN ‘able to be conquered’.
\
प्रसह्य mfn. IS GDV FROM …
√प्रसह् = प्र + √सह् A1. -sahate- (rarely P. ti-: ind.p. -sahya-See below) , to conquer, be victorious ; to bear up against, be a match for or able to withstand, sustain, endure (accusative) etc. ; to check, restrain ; to be able to (infinitive mood)

एकसंश्रयाः , एकस्थाः

\
JUST AN INTENSIVE OF मन्द - WHICH SEEMS LIKE A REAL EXAGGERATION HERE, TO SAY THAT EVEN A GENTLE BREEZE CAN SHAKE A MIGHTY TREE WHEN IT GROWS ALONE WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF NEIGHBORING PLANTS/TREES. BUT SO IT IS.
