Sayana, in his commentary, describes it as a supplementary chapter or Khilakanda. In his time, four hundred years ago, several recensions of the work were current, of which the Dravida text contained 64 sections; the Karnata one, 74 sections ; the Andhra one, 80 sections; and others, 89 sections. Sayana commented on the Andhra recension of 80 sections ; but he says that the others must all be authentic, their differences being due to their belonging to separate sakhas or schools. Of the seven MSS. examined three have the text and commentary in 64 sections and four the text only in 80 sections: none 74 or 89.
