fore ask you for the loan of manuscripts of that work? If I get sufficient materials I shall take in consideration to prepare the text for publication in India. I should also be extremely thankful to you for the loan of manuscripts of not yet published works on Zoze specially on Prakrit metrics. I was shown in Ahmedabad several works on metrics some of them written in Prakrit; I mention a छन्दस्तत्त्वावचूरि by धर्मनन्दन उपाध्याय to छन्दq&fi, one by afrinfach and many more. I desire to collect information from as many original works as possible for only in that case I could hope to write something like a complete manual of India metrics. I therefore make bold to ask you for your belp in this matter, to which I am encouraged by former experiecce of your kind willingness to aid all earnest endeavours to promote researches in Indian Literature and antiquities.
With the repeated expression of my sincere gratitute for all you have done to make my stay in India successful and pleasant, I remain,
Yours affectionately, HERMANN JACOBI.
