A Vedic Concordance c5.s3.t1.2

c5.s3.t1.2

**RVkh.** The so-called khilas or khāilikāni sūktāni, appendices or apocryphal paralipomena, pertaining to the Rig-Veda. They are taken from Aufrecht's edition of the Rig-Veda, vol. ii., pages 672 ff. Some additional stanzas of this kind I have culled from F. Max Müller's second quarto edition of the Rig-Veda, London, 1892, vol. iv., pages 520 ff. The tradition of these stanzas is floating and uncertain, and calls for an independent systematic elaboration. See Oldenberg, l.c., pages 503 ff; and Macdonell, The Bṛhad-Devatā, part ii., pages xxx ff.
