Audīcyaprakāśa No. 204 Size.- 98 in. by 58 in. Extent.-16 leaves; 12 lines to a page; 27 letters to a line. Description.- Country paper ; Devanāgari characters; handwriting
bad; names of gotras tinged with red pigment; left-hand border of foll. 1-2 partly destroyed.
The codex forms part of Audicyaprakāśa, which according to Bühler's Report (III, p. 74, No. 50) must be a big work ( 59 leaves, 40 lines per page) and composed by Veņidatta. Our codex treats of different gradations of audicya (Gujarati) brahmins, according to their varna, pada, gotra, śākha, etc. The name of the author is nowhere found in the Ms. The language is corrupt. It is incomplete. See Aufrecht's Catalogus Catalogorum I, 76°; II, 15° and III, 17 (Gotrapravaroccāra from Audi
cyaprakāśa). Age.- Appears to be old. Author.- Anonymous (Veņidatta ?). Begins.- fol. 1b.
