³²⁹ Bühler, *l. c.*, p. 13 ff., enumerates 78 Smṛitis and 36 different redactions of individual Smṛitis,—in all, a total of 114 such texts. To these, however, we have still to add, for example, from his *Catalogue of MSS. from Gujarát*, vol. iii., the Smṛitis of Kokila, Gobhila, Súryáruṇa, *laghu*- and *vṛiddha*-Paráśara, *laghu*-Bṛihaspati, *laghu*-Śaunaka; while to the collective titles purposely omitted by him from his list—Chaturviṅśati, Shaṭtriṅśat (extracts from 24 and 36 Smṛitis), and Saptarshi—we have probably to add, from the same source, the Shaḍaśíti and Shaṇṇavati? The Aruṇa-Smṛiti is also specified in the *Catal. Sans. MSS., N. W. Prov.*, 1874, p. 122.
