Jaina Literature and Philosophy
Description.--Palm-leaf ; Devanāgari characters with Tehars; bold,
sufficiently big, clear and good hand-writing; the Ms. appears to be divided into three columns, but really it is not so, since every line extends to all the columns; borders of each of these columns ruled in four lines in black ink; holes in two places in each leaf in order to pass strings through it, with a view to hold the leaves together; nambers of leaves entered twice, once as 1, 2, 3 etc., as usual, the other set of numbers being as follows:a, fa eft, (8), (A) (4), (), of V,
El CEHT) C), **(8) "?! }(20), }(23) }(P2),
}(93), }(28) etc., "}}2o) etc., }(Po) etc., * }(2o)etc., ; }(40)cte,&(8)} (80)ete,®* } (vo) etc. 50 }(o etc., 8} (o)et, of furo)eter, } (100) ec, ! }(so)et, feco) etc.

1. In the Ms. this is written in the Jaină style; but, owing to the want of the
suitable type it is represented here in the Vaidika style.
