These books differ in length. On the other hand,<u> the Sama Veda is made up of 1,549 verses</u> and it is known as the Veda of melodies and chants. Furthermore,<u> the Atharva Veda includes 730 hymns</u> which are organized into 20 books. Moreover, it is known as "the Veda of magical formulas". Both the Sama Veda and the Atharva Veda take verses from the Rig Veda.
