The writers of of the Pratisakhyas have conseguently defined संहिता (saṃhitā) as पदप्रकृतिः संहिता (padaprakṛtiḥ saṃhitā), while Panini who further split up the padas into bases (प्रकृति (prakṛti)) and affixes (प्रत्यय (pratyaya)) and mentioned several augments and substitutes, the phonetic combinations, which resulted inside the word or pada, had to be explained by reason of the close vicinity of the several phonetic units forming the base, the affix, the augment, the substitute and the like, and he had to define the word संहृिता (saṃhṛिtā) rather differently which he did in the words परः संनिकर्षः संहिता (paraḥ saṃnikarṣaḥ saṃhitā); cf P.I.4.109; cf. also संहितैकपदे नित्या नित्या धातूपसर्गयोः । नित्य समासे वाक्ये तु सा विवक्षामपेक्षते (saṃhitaikapade nityā nityā dhātūpasargayoḥ | nitya samāse vākye tu sā vivakṣāmapekṣate) Sabdakaustubha on Maheshvara Sutra 5.1.

These he lists and the number of titles comes to 108—although in fact the number of Saṃhitā-texts extant is infinite, and the particular works available from age to age differ (14-34). [...]
