The marginal glosses of the manuscript are generally the Prakrit renderings of some Sanskrit words, classed as "akṛtigana" and vice-versa. The ink used for the text is black, while some lines are marked with a red pencil, probably by the compiler of the catalogues. The manuscript is complete and is in a good condition. The handwriting of this manuscript is almost uniform and clear it is sometimes written in a small size, and sometimes in a big size, as a sequel to which the lines in each page vary from 4 to 6. It is also carefully written save for some slight mistakes common to the other manuscripts consulted and collated by me. It has some scribal errors, here and there, which arise sometimes out of orthographical similarity in the Bengali script of the 17th and 18th centuries A. D., and sometimes owing to the ignorance of the copyist. These errors are quite negligible, and could easily be corrected with the aid of other manuscripts. The manuscript bears no date.
§ 4. B This manuscript in Bengali character, which has been preserved in the Vangiya Sahitya Parişat Library, Calcutta, bearing the number, Sanskrit 287, contains 15 folios written on both sides of the country-made paper, the first folio and the last being blank. Its measurement is 19 by 5 inches. It is complete and contains the textual portions of Prakrit, Chandah and Alankaras only. The ink used for the manuscript is black. In the margin, some notes, such as, the evolution of Sanskrit sounds (a>a, i, u, etc.) are found; and it is clear from the scholia that the hand-writing of the marginal notes is quite different
