Jaina Grantha Bhandars in Rajasthan
गय सत्तावन छयसय माहि, पुन्नयन को छापइ छाह । तक्कु पुराणु सुणिउ नउ सत्थ, भरणइ रल्हु हउ रण मुणउ प्रत्थु ।।५५२। जिणदत्त पूरी भई चउपही, छप्पन होणवि छहसय कही । सहसु मलोक विन्न सय रहिय गथ पमाणु राइसिहु कहिय ॥५५३।।
सवत् १७५२ वर्षे कात्तिग शुदि ५ शुक्रवासरे लिखतं महानंद पालंव पुष्करमलात्मज ॥

प्रादि रिसहु पणवेपिणु, अन्त वोरु जिणणाहु ।
अरहु सिद्ध प्राचार्य, अरु उज्झापति साहु ।। गणहर देउ नएपिरणु, सारद करइ पसाउ ।
हउ चउवीसी गाउं, करि तिसुद्ध समभाउ । सा तन सहजानन्दणु, बोलइ वच्छ निरूत्त ।
___ कम्मक्खय कारण णिमित्त, देल्ह तुम्हि रचहु कवित्त । दुममु कालु पंचमऊं, धम्म को दिन दिन हाणी ।
बोधि करहु फलु लेहु, कहहू चउबीस बखाणी ।। गौरउ पमणइ रिणसुरिण, गाह हउ दासि तुम्हारी ।
जिण चउबीस कथतरु, सो मुहि कहहु विचारी।।
