INTRODUCTION In the year 1942, I was requested by Dr. Kalidas Nag, M.A., D.LITT. (Paris), the then General Secretary of the Society, with the approval of the then President, Dr. Syamaprasad Mookerjee, to prepare a Descriptive Catalogue of Vernacular manuscripts in the Society's own collection and in the Indian Museum Collection. I was also asked to include in it the few vernacular manuscripts in the Government Collection which had been left out of the Catalogue (Vol. X) by Mahamahopadhyaya Haraprasad Sastri. After the abolition of the Fort William College the entire collection of manuscripts and printed books collected at great expense and trouble under the superintendence of Godwin, Carey and Gilchrist was handed over to the authorities of this Society in the year 1846. These manuscripts from the Fort William College formed the nucleus of the Society's collections of manuscripts. Most of the manuscripts catalogued in this volume are from the Fort William College Collection. These are not old but are copies made between the years 1823 and 1825 by the learned pandits appointed by the authorities of the Fort William College, for the Manuscript Library of the above institution. The condition of the manuscripts as handed down to the Society is good, the handwriting is distinct, paper is thick, and all the manuscripts are complete. They are in book-form and bound up, 3 or 4 manuscripts together. There are some unique texts, viz. : Candira Gita by Ramananda, Gaurimangala by Dvija Gauranga in the above collection. It is curious to note here that there is a manuscript-Pasupasamoksana by Radha Mohan Sen. It is a Bengali treatise written in dialogue form and in prose, its purpose being to uphold. the supremacy of the Vedic religion over Christianity and non-Hindu systems. There is also a prose text of the translation of Srimad-BhagavatGita (Section X), the author being a European, Henry Sergeant by name. It appears from the manuscript that some of the passages of it had been corrected by William For Private and Personal Use Only

( viii) Carey. We get rare specimens of early 19th century Bengali prose from the above two manuscripts. The few Bengali Manuscripts which I have catalogued from the Indian Museum Collection are not of less importance. The author of some of the works represented in the collection is Kasidasa Mitra. These works are santi-Gita, Kasi-Mahatmya, Bangalagita-Samgraha and others, of which the first two are translations from Sanskrit. The first one is the speech of Srikrsna as his message of peace to Arjuna in his greatest affliction after the tragic death of Abhimanyu. Its language and its philosophy would place the work in the front rank in our religious literature. Kasidasa Mitra translated this work for the use of Raja Ganga Narayana Sahasa, Raja Bahadur of Lalgur. The second one is the translation of a part of the Brahmavaivarta Purana. From the concluding verses it appears that he had travelled far and wide and finally settled at Benares. He wrote many books in Sanskrit and Bengali both in prose and verse. These manuscripts clearly show how a man from Bengal in those days did not forget to cultivate their own vernacular in other provinces. It is to be noted here that the 12 Assamese manuscripts noticed in this volume were presented by Lt. Neufuille to this Society on January, 1825. It is stated on a slip of paper pasted on a manuscript (No. As. 12) that the Lieutenant had forwarded a box to this Society containing manuscripts on religions and of sacred nature, which was found by him in Assam in course of the first British invasion of Assam. Of these, Sankaradeva's Kirtana and Baragita are very important. Besides these there are a few Assamese texts on indigenous medicine and mystical incantations for curing diseases. There are further two works on history(1) Kamrupa Itihasa, (2) Cahabara guna-barnana. The former gives a chronological list of Kings beginning from the mythological Kings Sambarasura and Narakasura up to Visvasimha, the Koch King. It is mentioned in this work how Damodardeva the Vaisnava preacher in Assam met Sri Caitanyadeva at Maricota (N. Gauhati) and was initiated by him. The second one is a eulogy of Europeans For Private and Personal Use Only

I take this opportunity to acknowledge with thanks a helpful criticism of the manuscript of this work by the Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ramaprasad Mukhopadhyaya, M.A., B.L. Judge of Calcutta High Court and late President of this Society. I am proud to admit that I am fortunate enough to come in personal touch with him who has patronised me in many ways.

For inspiration, guidance and helpful criticism I cannot but fully express my debt of gratitude to Dr. Srikumar Bandyopadhyaya, M.A., B.L., PH.D. Ramtanu Lahiri Professor of Bengali and President of the Post-Graduate Teaching in Arts, Calcutta University.

Lines, 8 on a page. Character, Bengali of the 19th century. Appearance, fresh. Complete. The outline of the book : Pariksita asked Sukadeva to relate to him about Krsna's education in the residence of his preceptor-Sandipana. The sage Sukadeva relates thus: During the Sraddha ceremony of Vasudeva's father, there were a number of learned scholars, and from them Krsna and Balarama learned the importance of reading and writing. With a view to acquire knowledge they went to the hermitage of the sage Sandipana, and they were cordially welcomed as the divine incarnations of Visnu. After finishing their education, Krsna and Balarama requested Sandipana-the sage to accept remuneration from them. Thereupon their teacher requested them to revive his son Madhumangala, who had been killed by a demon-Sankha by name in the sea. Thereupon, Sankhasura was killed and Madhumangala was restored to life by Krsna. The rejoicing of Sandipana and his wife knew no bounds, when they got back their son once more. 28 YASASCANDRA G.5678. gobindbilaas Govindavilasa. Substance, country-made paper, 15x5 inches.

Appearance, fresh. The original text in Sanskrit with its Bengali translation. It is delivered by Sri Krsna as his message of peace to Arjuna in his greatest affliction after the tragic death of his brave son Abhimanyu. The sweet music of its language and its soothing philosophy would give the work the front rank in our sacred literature. What is still more interesting to us is the accompanying Bengali translation which was carefully corrected. It shows how Bengalis outside Bengal pushed their vernacular in those days. It is one of the MSS. of Kasidasa Mitra who copied it for the use of Raja Ganga Narayana Sahasa Raya Bahadur of Lalgar.

Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir The outline of the story: With the company of Vyasamuni, Indra after leaving his kingdom travelled extensively in heaven and earth but when he returned to heaven he found it desolate. Indra asked Vyasamuni of the cause of its desolation. Vyasamuni replied that it was due to the wrath of Ghora-Candi who was displeased with a Gandharva king-the king of heaven during the absence of Indra, who obtained the blessings of Ghora-Candi from Mahadeva by practising austerities. At this Indra felt inclined to worship Ghora Candi, and by her blessings, he once more recovered his own kingdom. Vidyadhara, an honest man, heard about the omnipotence of Ghora Candi and worshipped the goddess. Through her grace, Vidyadhara became the king of Campakanagara. An old man prayed to the goddess, and he was rejuvenated. But owing to the discourtesy shown by Pingala, one of the wives of Vidyadhara, Ghora-Candi disappeared from his home and Vidyadhara became an ordinary man.

Pancanana is generally known as Pancuthakura. The cult of the said god is immensely popular among the women-folk of lower classes of West Bengal for the welfare of the children and removal of the barrenness of women. The work describes how king Suratha had a son through the grace of the deity. But he was much offended when he was totally forgotten by the royal couple. He carried their son away by witches. Afterwards when he was worshipped with due pomp and festivities, he brought the child to the royal couple. * Sanskrit books on folk cults are rare, but there is a MS. Bshadrudrayamala, i.e. a work derived from Bshadrudrayamala in the Government Collection of the Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal in which the cult of Pancanana has been dealt with in detail. The author was an inhabitant of the village called "Goda', situated in the western side of the Burdwan town. See Dr. Sen's History of Bengali Literature (in Bengali), Vol. I, p. 792.

( 107 ) A collection of devotional Vaisnava songs with different musical notes is chiefly based on the various incidents of the life of Krsna. Sankaradeva was one of the celebrated Vaisnava poets of the 15th century. Just like Caitanya he wanted to propagate his new faith, and for this he translated many books from Sanskrit into Assamese and composed many Vaisnava songs, lyrics and others. He was born in Alipukhuri in Nowgong in 1449 A.D., and died in Cooch Behar in 1569. Of his religious books, Kirtana and Dasanama are important. The MS. is presented by Lieut. Neuluive on 25th Jan., 1825. Along with the MS., he forwards a box to the Society containing a series of writings on leaf which is said to be of a religious and sacred nature and which was found by him in Assam.
