[imp. ** p. p.* Perjured (?)] p. pr. ** vb. n.* Perjuring.] [F. parjurer, L. perjurare, perjerare] per through, over + jurare to swear. See Jury.]

To cause to violate an oath or a vow; to cause to make oath knowingly to what is untrue; to make guilty of perjury; to forswear; to corrupt; -- often used reflexively; as, he perjured himself.

The ne'er-touched vestal. Shak.

And with a virgin innocence did pray
For me, that perjured her. J. Fletcher.

Syn. -- To Perjure, Forswear. These words have been used interchangeably; but there is a tendency to restrict perjure to that species of forswearing which constitutes the crime of perjury at law, namely, the willful violation of an oath administered by a magistrate or according to law.
