I give a list of the various subjects treated in the Vâjasaneyi-saṃhitâ, according to Mahîdhara. The Saṃhitâ of the Vâjasaneyins begins with The Darśapûrṇamâsamantrâs, Adhyâya, i.—ii. 28. Then follow:— Pitṛiyajnamantrâs, ii. 29—34. Agnyâdheyamantrâs, iii. 1—8. Agnihotram, iii. 9—10. Agnyupasthânam, iii. 11—43.
