¹⁴¹⁰ अपरार्क on pp 368-370 quotes about 20 verses from विष्णुधर्म, some of which may be examined here. षष्टिं वर्षसहस्राणि स्वर्गे वसति भूमिदः। आच्छेत्ता चानुमन्ता च तान्येव नरके वसेत्॥ This very verse is q by अपरार्क on p. 370 from आदित्यपुराण This verse is stated to be derived from व्यास and मनु in E. I. vol 12 p. 135. The गृहस्थरत्नाकर p. 517 quotes it from बृहस्पति, while बृहस्पतिस्मृति (Anan. collection) verse 29 has the latter half of it. On p. 369 the verse यत्किञ्चित्कुरुते पाप is quoted from विष्णुधर्म but the same is quoted by अपरार्क himself on p 370 from मत्स्य and it is verse 7 of बृहस्पतिस्मृति and is also अनुशासन 62 19 and वसिष्ठधर्मसूत्र 29 16 Then at the end of that long passage is verse आस्फोटयन्ति पितरः (अपरार्क p 370), which is बृहस्पतिस्मृति 17 and पद्मपुराण VI 33 17.
