________________ The condition of the Ms. is fairly good. The writing is fairly legible but generally incorrect. Though the last prabandha is not dated, the post-colophon entry at the close of the first prabandha viz. the Jagaddeva-prabandha states that it was written on Thursday, the fifth day of the dark half of the month of Caitra in the Samvat year 1465 (c. A, D. 1409): “ o 884 ara a s an poste Il sit: 113 11" (Fol. 1a, last line). Moreover, the whole Ms. is written in one hand. The Ms., therefore, must be regarded as dated V. S. 1465 (c. A. D. 1409 ). The fact that only the first prabandha bears the date of copying need not raise any doubt regarding the completeness of the Ms. For, although the close of the second prabandha is marked by the following colophon and postcolophon entry : "Il 3 11 at 27THERIETÀU: HATA: 11 3 11 eft: il v Had 94917: ” and is at the same time followed by as many as eight prabandhas and only a similar benediction closes the tenth or the last prabandha, it has to be pointed out that the completion of the work is indicated by a Prākrit verse that stands the last; vide : 11 3 11 hela&# 1 : 11 3 JH H90 da#117 [:] tamil रायाण दंतिदंते पामरलोआण वसहखंधम्मि । सुहडाण खग्गिअग्गे महिलाण पयोहरे लच्छी ॥१॥ श्रीः ।। к This codex belongs to the Pravartaka Kāntivijayaji Collection of the Atmānanda Jaina Jñānamandira, BARODA, bearing no. 2356. Though undated, it appears to be about 200 years old. It is written in Devanāgari characters on paper, 10.3 X 4.4 inches in size, with the side-margins of 0.6" each and a space of 0.4" left out at the top as well as the bottom. The margins are ruled in double black lines. This codex contains only one of the prabandhas viz. the Madanabhramamahārājaprabandha and consists of one folio, with 36 lines in all and about 63 letters to a line, the folio being unnumbered. Both the pages have a decorative space of the shape of a Vedikā or a sacrificial altar of thirteen padas left out in the middle, its minimum measurement being 0.3" and maximum 1.3", and only four letters are written in the four directions within the same.
