47. HARIVANSA PURANA BHASA:
This is a Rajasthani prose translation of Harivansa Purāņa written by Ācārya Jinasena in Sanskrit. It is a Jaina Mahābhārata. The translation is in Rajasthani prose. The manuscript was copied in Samvat 1671 (1614 A. D.). This shows that the work was written prior to the 17th Century. Such a good and voluminous work in Rajasthāni prose has not been found so far. Two pieces of the prose are given below:

48. HINDI COMMENTARY ON BHAKTAMARA STOTRA:
There are several commentaries available on the famous Bhaktāmara Stotra. They are in Samskrit as well as in Hindi.
