The Sacred Books of the East - Translated by Various Oriental Scholars #249800

For a satisfactory translation of these texts, the etymo logical and comparative method is generally considered as the best or as the only possible one, on account of the entire absence of any traditional interpretation. I have tried, however, to reduce the sphere of etymological guess work to its narrowest limits, with the help of different Pahlavi, Persian, and Sanskrit translations, which are as yet unpublished, and have been neglected by former trans lators. I found such translations for the Sirozahs for Vasts I, VI, VII, XI, XXIII, XXIV, and for the Nyayis1 (besides the already published translations of Vasts XXI and XXII).
