Jaiminīya (Talavakāra) Brāhmaṇa 6.19

English (machine translation) 6.19

Now the Yajñāyajñīya has its Brāhmaṇa already stated.

"Flow, leader of speech"—

thus are the opening verses (pratipad).

When the Bṛhat and Rathantara were created, the Bṛhat was created first, then the Rathantara.

Therefore,

"Flow, leader of speech"—

thus are the opening verses.

Some seers saw [a verse with] "forward" (pra), others with "not" (na).

Now this [verse] stands neither with "forward" nor with "not".

The seer Bharadvāja saw the form of speech belonging to the Bṛhat.

This Bṛhat is indeed Bharadvāja's lineage-sāman.
