¹²⁰⁰ एवमादीनि विषमविभागप्रतिपादकानि मन्वादिवचनानि कलियुगव्यतिरिक्तविषयाणि । अत एव कलौ विषमविभागनिषेध आदिपुराणे । ऊढायाः पुनरुद्वाहं ज्येष्ठांशं गोवधं तथा । कलौ पञ्च न कुर्वीत भ्रातृजायां कमण्डलुम् ॥ ज्येष्ठांशं जन्मविद्याविक्रुतज्येष्ठवर्त्तिनबन्धनमंशम् । स्मृतिसंग्रहेपि । यथा नियोगधर्मो ... संप्रति वर्तते ॥ इति । संप्रति कलियुगे । मदनरत्न (folio 92 a). The verse ऊढायाः is quoted in the Sm. C. (II. p. 266) also from a पुराण (without naming it). Rao Bahadur Rangaswami Aiyangar (in Introduction to V. Nir. XLIX-LI) wrongly thinks that by स्मृतिसंग्रह is meant the व्यव. नि. of वरदराज which quotes the verse यथा नियोगधर्मो नो from प्रजापति. He failed to note that the verse यथा नियोगधर्मो नो &c. is quoted by the Mit. on Yāj. II. 117, the Mitākṣarā being one of the authorities quoted in the V. Nir. Therefore the स्मृतिसंग्रह from which the verse is said to have been taken is the work of that name also called संग्रह.
