EXPLANATORY NOTES.
§ 1, 1. The quotation EtcufA za gÇif# TIPU: is from the Ait. År. II, i, 6, 4. (W1 alone reads igual.)
199 1 U1°: as to the thirteen books on which the Sarvânukramani is based, see A.S.L., p. 234. Note that the ten works of Saunaka are here mentioned under the generic term 'Anukramani.'
51, 3. महावलिम्: Bali the son of Prahlada. अपत्यप्रत्ययः: with reference to the importance here attributed to patronymic suffixes in connexion with the names of seers, a line is curiously enough introduced from the story of Syâvâsva in the Brihaddevatâ, containing the fanciful statement that'a secr considers the composer of hymns a father of the Veda.'

It is, therefore, perhaps, a later addition, it being necessary for the sake of completeness, with reference to the three words risbi, daivata, khandah, mentioned in the first sätra of $1.
$ 2, 16. 014 : seems to have no point, and is probably a corruption for data : , l' being an incorrect MS. I cannot make any senst out of the reading of W 1, 1 4.
$ 2, 20. The conjectural reading UiT, 'acid,' is preferable to a vague word like TH (W 1, 14),‘liquid. All the MSS. have a long vowel in : 'the sûtras, like the Brahmanas, explain the connexion of the Veda.' $ 2, 22. ATT (V2, 1 2) is, perlaps, a preferalsle reading to that of the
