PALMACARIU
and description of these three Mss. utilized in constituting the text of the Vidyādharakānda are as follows:
1. Ms. P. From the Government Mss. collection deposited
at the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, Poona. This Ms. is No. 1120 from the Collection of 1884-87 described in the 'Fifth Report of a Tour in Search of Sanskrit Manuscripts by Dr. R. G. Bhandarkar'. Paper Ms. size 111" X 4Y". 226 folios, of which folios No. 19, 24, 34, 164-172, 189-192 (16 in all) are missing. About 13 to 16 lines per side. About 46 to 56 letters per line. Begins on folio 1 verso, ends on folio 226 recto. Jain Devanāgari script. Corrected at several places in a different hand, which casually notes variant readings also. Occasional marginal glosses in vulgar Sanskrit, which also appear to have been copied from an earlier Ms. On folio 1 recto is noted TATUTETTI (TIESIOPATH). Colophon of P.113|| at 843? ao (added marginally) BOCHTET E so gerill MTENT 214 za 2011

as the edge of the folio is damaged). Thus the Ms. is dated 1521 V.S. or 1464-5 A.D. and was copied at Gopācala-durga, i.e., Gwalior Fort. The anonymous marginal gloss is earlier to this date at least by several years, as it also seems to have been copied from an earlier model. Its Sanskrit is careless, incorrect and considerably vulgarized. At a few places the gloss gives vernacular equivalents of the terms occurring in the text,
2. Ms. s. This Ms. belongs to the Mss. collection of the Jain Bhandār at the Godikā temple in Sāmgāner situated in Jaipur State. Paper Ms. size 12" X 5-2,5". 358 folios, of which Nos. 149 and 150 are missing. About 13 lines per side. About 40 letters per line. Begins on folio 1 verso, ends on folio 358 verso. Jain Devanagari script. Bold hand.

Thus 1775 V.S. is the date of presenting the Ms. to the Bhandār. The date of copying may be much earlier. On account of greater proportion of gum in the ink used for writing this Ms., many folios had got stuck with one another and hence the writing on several pages has been blurred or illegibly damaged.
3. Ms. A. This Ms. is from the Mss. collection in the Bhandar at Arner, Jaipur in the management of Sri Digambar Jain Atiśay Ksetr Sri Mahāvirji Prabandh-Kāriņi Committee, Jaipur. Paper Ms. size 111" X 4.1". 357 folios. About 13 lines per side. About 39 letters per line. Begins on folio 1 verso, ends on
