[Footnote 12: Compare Manu, ix. 245: "Varuna is the lord of punishment and holdeth a sceptre (punishment) even over kings."]
[Footnote 13: In new rites, for instance. Thus in P[=a)rask. Grih. S. 3. 7 a silly and dirty rite 'prevents a slave from running away'; and there is an ordeal for girls before becoming engaged (below).]
[Footnote 14: Blood is poured out to the demons in order that they may take this and no other part of the sacrifice, [=Ajit. Br. ii. 7. 1.]
[Footnote 15: Here. 4. 8. 19, Çiva's names are Hara, Mrida, Çarva, Çiva, Bhava, Mah[=a]deva, Ugra, Bhima, Paçupati, Rudra, Çankara, İçana.]
[Footnote 16: These rites are described in 6. 4. 24 of the Brihad [=A]ranyaka Upanishad which consists both of metaphysics and of ceremonial rules.]
[Footnote 17: Especially mentioned in the later Vasistha (see below); on m[=i]m[=a]ms[=a] a branch of the Ved[=a]nta system see below.]
[Footnote 18: The commentator here (19. 12, cited by Bühler) defines Ved[=a]nta as the part of the [=A]ranyakas which are not Upanishads, that is, apparently as a local 'Veda-end' (veda-anta), though this meaning is not admitted by some scholars, who will see in anta only the meaning 'goal, aim.')
[Footnote 19: The Rudra (Çiva) invocation at 26. 12 ff. is interpolated, according to Bühler.]
