Uttaradhyayanasūtra
with balavabodha and kathās
8,
1869-70.
Country paper rough, white and not very thin Jaina Devanagari characters; bold, big, uniform, legible and elegant hand-writing; borders ruled in four lines in red ink, and edges, in two; this Ms. contains the text, its explanation in Gujarati and narrations in Sanskrit illustrating the prescribed rules; this Ms. seems to be incomplete; for, the text contains only 22 adhyayanas and the illustrations up to the 23rd; the 24th adhyayana requires no illustrations and the 25th has only one small illustration needed; later on, no stories are to be found so far as the remaining adhyayanas are concerned; that may be the reason why this work ends here; numbers for foll. written in two different margins on one and the same side; foll. 113 to 115 missing; fol. 127b kept blank; fol. 6 slightly torn; fol. 245 torn; condition fair.
