A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OF
century under the patronage of the Hosala family & Canarege dynasty originally Jains, and converted by Rāmānajācārya about 1150 to the Vaişnava faith. Rama reigned at Devagiri from 1272, 3-1310, and this commentary must, therefore, have been composed within that period. It is very concise, and there is every reason to believe that only the Pūrva-ārcika, Āraṇyaka Samhitā, and Mahanāmos hymns were commented on by Bharata Svāmin, for there is no trace of a commentary on the Uttarãrcika by this author; and here 9,112 (Bharatasvāmin's commentary) and 9,108 (Sāyana's commentary on the Uttara-Arcika) formed part of the same Ms. originally. I have seen this occur in another instance. Saunaka, the Aitareyabrhāmaņa, Āśvalāyana sutra, the Taittirfyaka, Babe vộca Upanigad and apparently Yãska are quoted, so far as I have examined this commentary."
A transcribed copy of this Ms. in paper is also available in the Library. See Transcript Volume No. 43, the date of copying being the 10th Jan. 1915. [Ref. T. V. 43 (No. 11.)]
