It is nevertheless of use to discriminate in a general way between the two classes: and accordingly in this work cross-references introduced by the word \*See\* are used for the former, and cross-references introduced by the word \*Compare\* (\*Cf.\*) are used for the latter. By way of illustration, the following five articles may here be reprinted in juxtaposition and in their alphabetic sequence: anaḍvān dādhāra pṛthivīm uta dyām AV.4.11.¹, \*et al.\* \*Cf. indro dādhāra, mitro dādhāra, sa dādhāra, and skambho dādhāra.\* indro dādhāra pṛthivīm utemām MS.4.14.7ᵇ: 225.3. \*Cf. under anaḍvān etc.\* mitro dādhāra pṛthivīm uta dyām RV.3.59.1ᵇ \*et al.\* \*Cf. under anaḍvān etc.\* sa dādhāra pṛthivīm dyām utemām (AV. 4.2.7ᶜ, pṛthivīm uta dyām; AV.11.5.1ᶜ, pṛthivīm dyām ca; ApÇ. pṛthivīm antarikṣam divam ca) RV.10.121.1ᶜ, \*et al.\* \*Cf. under anaḍvān etc.\* skambho dādhāra dyāvāpṛthivī ubhe ime AV.10.7.35ᵃ. \*Cf. under anaḍvān etc.\* - [Previous: c5.s2.20](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c5.s2.20) - [Next: c5.s2.22](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c5.s2.22) - [Up: c5.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c5.s2) ## Linked texts (3) - [Maitrāyaṇīsaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.krsnayajur*maitrayani.4.14.7) — Sanskrit - [Ṛgvedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.rg.3.59.1) — Sanskrit - [Atharvavedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.atharva.4.11.1) — Atharvan & Aṅgiras, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c5.s2.21](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c5.s2.21) · Pramāṇa
