²⁰⁷⁷ के पुनः कल्पाः कानि सूत्राणीति उच्यते। सिद्धरूपः प्रयोगो यः कर्मणामनुगम्यते। ते कल्पा लक्षणार्थानि सूत्राणीति प्रचक्षते। कल्पनाद्धि प्रयोगाणां कल्पोऽनुष्ठानसाधनम्। सूत्रं तु सूचनात्तेषां स्वयं कल्पमयोगकम्। कल्पाः पठितसिद्धा हि प्रयोगाणां प्रतिग्रतु। तन्त्रवा. on I. 3.11 (प्रयोगशास्त्रमिति चेत्) p. 229. The principal distinction is that Kalpas about each vedic sacrifice lay down simply the procedure that is ready made as handed down by oral tradition, while Kalpasūtras like those of Āśvalāyana, Baījavāpi, Drāhyāyana, Lāṭyāyana and Kātyāyana contain *saṁjñās*, *paribhāṣās*, general rules, exceptions and definitions etc.
