c8.191

There is a far greater number of *Sútras* to the Sáma-veda than to any of the other Vedas. We have here three Śrauta-Sútras; a Sútra which forms a running commentary upon the Pañchaviṅśa-Bráhmaṇa; five Sútras on Metres and on the conversion of *ṛichas* into *sámans*; and a Gṛihya-Sútra. To these must further be added other similar works of which the titles only are known to us, as well as a great mass of different Pariśishṭas.
