    * It is not clear whether the next prac^na should he num¬ bered XIV. or XY. It is not numbered in this MS. or in No. LXXI.; but according to the last it appears that it is pra° XV. Begins 1. 95—Ukthyash sboda9y atiratro’ ptoryama9 cagnishtomasya gunavikarah, etc. Khandas 34 ; ends—Vedam upastha adhaya | P. XVI (25 kh.) begins 1. 103—Agnim ceshtamano ’ma- vasyayam, etc. Ends—Shoda9apra° | XVII. (26 kh.) begins 1.112—Cvobhute purvahnikibhyam, etc. Ends—Saptada9apra° j XVIII. begins 1. 118—Caradi vajapeyena yajeta, etc. Ends—Antarhitya iti vijnayate | 8 | The complete Apastamba-9rauta-sutras are said to com¬ prise 30 pra9nas, but I have never met with another MS. so extensive as this. At the end of each pra9na is a sort of index which begins with the first words of the last section, (in the next MS. the first words of the next praqna are first given), and ends with the beginning of the first section. LXXI. The same work. Grantha character; 202 palmyra leaves, 19 x 1|; copied about 1750 in a large and good hand; 5-7 lines on a page. P. i. begins 1. 1; ii. 95; iii. 17; iv. 245; v. 33; vi. 465; vn. 615; vm. 755; ix. 89; x. 1055; xi. 135; xn. 146; xiii.f 167. The last pra9na (1. 182) is the same as the one marked * in the last MS. As the index at the end of this p. begins with the first words of P. xvi. (v. MS. No. LXX.) it must be P. xv. LXXI I. The same work. Grantha character; copied about 1800 : 52 palmyra leaves, 18 + 1|. P. i. 1; n. 19; iii. 305; iv. 405. Ends—Ity apastambiye purvasutre catur- thah pra9nah | yajamanasutram samaptam | LXXIII. The same work. Grantha character; on 54 tali- patleaves, 13+2; 8-12 lines on a page; recent. P. i. 1. 1; ii. 225; iii. 395. After the sutras are in many cases inserted explanations and additions. LXXIV. The same work. 4 pra9nas (impt.);, mantras for the agnyadheya, etc. ; 120 palmyra leaves, 16f + 1; grantha character; copied about 1750. t This ip erroneously numbered 14.
