misunite

To unite that which does not belong together.

This, it may be supposed, is the original reading; this verse, just as v. 16, belongs neither to the gragment of an historical narrative, which is preserved in vv. 14f (with which modern commentators generally misunite those two verses), nor to the legend, vv. 17 ff., but to the Epitomist whose mode of representation is plainly apparent in them.

The disposition of the words, syllables, and letters is much as my copy represents. Words are misunited; and words are broken apart, often, apparently, at haphazard.

To unite badly.

[…] fracture of the right clavical which was badly misunited and which according to him did not cause the plaintiff any disability but only a disfigurement .

The bony fragments are misunited because the fracture was never reduced by a doctor prior to bony repair.
