page 1101 note 3 See SBE., xv, 289:Weber, , Indischz Sludien, ii, 396;Bühler, , IA., xxiii, 245, n. 21; Jacobi, , ZDMG., xlix, 228, n. 2.

page 1101 note 4 Jacobi, , IA., xxiii, 157.

page 1102 note 1 See Thibaut's convincing refutation of Hindu accuracy, IA., xxiv, 99.

page 1102 note 2 Jacobi, , IA., xxiii, 157. His observations on this point at ZDMG., xlix, 228, do not seem convincing.

page 1102 note 5 xix, 2, 3.

page 1103 note 1 It may be noted here that the date given by the Vedānga is absolutely uncertain owing to the vagueness of the evidence; see Thibaut, , IA., xxiv, 98.

page 1103 note 2 x, 85, 13. Büler even doubted this; see IA., xxiii, 244. Cf. Thibaut, , IA., xxiv, 95; Müller, Max, Ṛgveda, iv, p. lxvii.

page 1103 note 5 JRAS., 1909, p. 721, n. 1.

page 1104 note 1 ZDMG., xlix, 478–80.

page 1104 note 1 On this cf. Eggeling, , SBE., xii, p. xl.

page 1104 note 3 The argument would be much better if ilāni had appeared once before Mitra-Varuna as a compound. It should be noted that the words for these gods are followed by words of unknown meaning and language. The variant Uru-w-na tells against Aruna as the name of the god referred to, and a Vedic Aruna is not proved.

page 1105 note 1 ZDMG., xlix, 178.

page 1105 note 2 These can easily be exaggerated. The later Vedic life is really no more than a fulfilment of the earlier, as all recent research more and more strongly shows.

page 1106 note 1 It is hardly necessary to discuss the significance of the Sun-god Šuriaš, of the Kašši, referred to by Professor Jacobi (JRAS., 1909, p. 726, n. 1). No stress can be laid on so isolated a name.
