² *Trayo'nuyājāś-chatvāro patnī-saṁyājāḥ*, *Śat. Br.* XI.4.1.11. The *Kāśikā* seems to be mistaken in stating that there were 5 *anuyājas* and 8 *patnī-saṁyājas*. In the Paśubandha sacrifices the number of *prayājas* and *anuyājās* is eleven each. The 4 *patnī-saṁyājas* were offered by the Yajamāna's wife after the *anuyājas* in the Darśa-Paurṇamāsa Ishṭi. The 8 *patnī-saṁyājas* are, however, prescribed, as an option, by the *Baudh. ŚSr.*, 24.29.
