OR SACRKD WRITINGS OF THE HIXDUS. 479 



A short Upanishad, entitled Nlirayana^ is fol-

 the first and second parts of the Vrihan Narayana. 

 This corresponds, as before mentioned, witli an 

 Upcmishad, bearing the same title, and terminating 

 the A'ran'ya of the Taittinya Yajuweda. 



On the three subsequent Upanishads I shall offer 

 no remarks ; they have not been commented among 

 such as relate to the Vidanta; and I have not as- 

 certained whence they are extracted *.

 which have been already noticed as extracts from 

 the A'ran'ya of the black Yqjitsh, distinguished by 

 the titles oi Taittinya and Vdrim'i. 



The remaining seven Upanishads\ are unexplain- 

 ed by commentators on the Vtdanta. They are, 

 indeed, sufficiently easy, not to require a laboured 

 interpretation: but there is room to regret the 

 want of an ancient commentary, which might as- 

 sist in determining whether these Upanishads be 

 genuine. The reason of this remark will be subse- 

 quently explained. 



Entertaining no doubts concerning the genuine-

 some of the reasons on which my belief of their
