The variants of this recension of the White Yajur- Veda are given by Weber at the end of each section in the edition described in the preceding article. These variants have been embodied in the Concordance. In cases where there is no separate report for VSIv., it is to be understood that the Kanva-^akha agrees with the Madhyaiiidina-Qakha. TS.

The remainder of this text is still un¬ published. As stated above, page ix b , I made a special journey to Vienna in the year 1902 , for the purpose of excerpting from Dr. von Schrocderis manuscript copies the entire remaining material of this Samhita. Through the kindness of that scholar I was enabled to accomplish my purpose; but a certain amount Explanations] WITH ABBREVIATIONS OF THEIR TITLES xvi 1 of indulgence is asked for my statements relating to the Kathaka, taken as they are from unedited material. The comparison of my excerpts with parallel passages from other texts is also likely to be somewhat less complete and exact than usual. KSA. Kathaka-Saiiihita, Agvamedha-Grantha. The Ka- thaka-Samhita professes to consist of five books. The first, already edited, is designated as ithlmika ; the second, as madhyamika ; the third, as orhniM, Under the circumstances detailed in the note immediately fol¬ lowing, it has seemed best to devise an independent designation (KSA.) for this part of the work, the Agva- medha-Grantha. At the end of book iii., the colophon reads as follows: ity ekottaragata^dkhddhvaryuprabhedabhinnc grimadyajurvede kathake cara- kagdkhaydm orimikdydm hiranyagarbham ndma catvdritlgam sthd- nakam sampurnam || bhadram astu sampurnd ceyam orimikd |] (Tl- granthatraye madhyapathitdf ca ydjydnuvdkydh sampurndh || asmin granthatraydbhyantare ydjyanuvdkyd ndma caturtho grantha/i. That is to say, the redactors of this Saihhita seem to regard the ydjyanuvdkyd,- stanzas contained in the first three books as the fourth book of the Samhita, perhaps to match the ydjyanuvdkyd collection at the end of the fourth book of the Mai tray anT. At all events, there is no such book in the known manuscripts of the Kathaka. After the orimikd follows directly the last book of the Kathaka, devoted to the a^vamedha. Now this the re¬ dactors boldly advertise as the fifth book of the Kathaka. At the beginning stands the legend, atJulpainedho ndma pancamo granihah ; at the end, ity ekottara$atddhvaryu$dkhdprabhedabhinne pdmadyajurvedakdthake car a ka fdkhayd m a^vamedho ndma paiicamo granthah sampurnah .
