n, grandson, _and to his father
and grandfather_ (vi. 1. 2. 13). On the other hand, it was
the custom of the Indian kings in later ages to assume the
names of their prosperous grandfathers (JRAS. iv. 85).]

[Footnote 51: Were it not for the first clause it would be
more natural to render the original 'The gods are truth
alone, and men are untruth.']

[Footnote 52: In _Cat. Br_. ii. 4. 2. 5-6 it is said that
the Father-god gives certain rules of eating to gods, Manes,
men, and beasts: "Neither gods, Manes, nor beasts transgress
the Father's law, only some men do."]

[Footnote 53: _Cat. Br_. ii. 5. 2. 20. Varuna seizes on her
paramour, when she confesses. _T[.a]itt. Br_. i. 6. 5. 2.
The guilt confessed becomes less "because it thereby becomes
truth" (right).]

[Footnote 54: See _Cat. Br._. ii. 4. 2. 6; 4. 1. 14; 1. 3.
9; 3. 1. 28: "Who knows man's morrow? Then let one not
procrastinate." "Today is self, this alone is certain,
uncertain is the morrow."]

[Footnote 55: Some little rules are interesting. The
Pythagorean abstinence from _m[=a][s.][=a]s_, beans, for
instance, is enjoined; though this rule is opposed by Barku
V[=a]rshna, _Cat. Br_. i. 1. 1. 10, on the ground that no
offering to the gods is made of beans; "hence he said 'cook
beans for me.'"]

[Footnote 56: Animals may represent gods. "The bull is a
form of Indra," and so if the bull can be made to roar
(_Cat. Br._ ii. 5. 3. 18), then one may know that Indra is
come to the sacrifice. "Man is born into (whatever) world is
made (by his acts in a previous existence)," is a short
formula (_Cat. Br._. vi. 2. 2. 27), which represents the
_karma_ doctrine in its essential principle, though the
'world' is here not this world, but the next. Compare Weber,
ZDMG. ix. 237 ff.; Muir, OST. v. 314 ff.]

[Footnote 57: Though youth may be restored to him by the
Acvins, _Cat. Br._. iv. i. 5. 1 ff. Here the Horsemen are
identified with Heaven and Earth (16).]

[Footnote 58: _Cal. Br_. ii. 3. 3. 7. Apropos of the
Brahmanic sun it may be mentioned that, according to _Ait.
Br._ iii. 44, the sun never really sets. "People think that
he sets, but in truth he only turns round after reaching the
end of the day, and makes night below, day above; and when
they think he r
