First Sentence
"THE Grihya-sutra of Gobhila differs from those of Sankhayana, Asvalayana, Paraskara, Hiranyakesin in one essential point: while these texts presuppose only the same Vedic Samhitas on which also the corresponding Srauta-sutras are based, viz. the Rig-veda-Samhita, the Vagasaneyi-Samhita, and the Taittiriya-Samhita ; the Sutra of Gobhila, on the other hand, presupposes, beside the Samhita of the Sama-veda, another collection of Mantras which evidently was composed expressly with the purpose of being used at Grihya ceremonies: this collection is preserved to us under the title of the Mantra-Brahmana,and it has been edited at Calcutta (1873), with a commentary and Bengali translation by Satyavrata Samasramin."
