PAHLAVI TEXTS.
Pahlavi, Z. and P. IV, in the India Office Library in London. The date of this manuscript has been lost with its last folio, but its text is in the same handwriting as that of three others, in Kopenhagen and Bombay, which were written A. D. 1323-4. A considerable portion of the beginning of this manuscript has also been lost, and is replaced by modern folios of no particular value.
In conclusion, the translator must take the opportunity of thankfully acknowledging the kindness and readiness with which Dastûr Peshotanji Behrâmji Sanjânâ, the highpriest of the Parsis in Bombay, and Dastûr Jâmâspji Minochiharji Jâmâsp-Åsâ-nâ, of the same city, have always furnished him with any information he applied for, not only on those matters specially mentioned in the footnotes, but also on many other occasions.
MUNICH, September, 1882.
