Appendices There is practically nothing new to add so far as the plan followed by me for the presentation of this Part I of Section II of Vol. XIX is concerned. It is based upon the general lines laid down in 1930 by Rao Bahadur Dr. S. K. Belvalkar, the then Hon. Secretary of the Institute and adopted by me for Vol. XVII ( Parts I-IV ), Vol. XVIII ( Part I ) and Vol. XIX ( Section 1, Parts I-II ). These lines have determined the inter-arrangement of the descriptive sheets dealing with the same text and the system of transliteration.
Works composed in languages other than Sanskrit, are assigned Sanskrit iitles, in addition to those in the very languages (Sanskrit excluded in which the works are composed. The latter titles are placed in brackets just below the former ones. At times an alternative title or even a popular one is indicated, and it is placed in rectangular brackets for the sake of distinction.
