Jaina Literature and Philosophy
1719
Description - Country paper somewhat thick, tough and white; Jaina
Devanagari characters with occasional पृष्ठमात्राs; this MS. contains the text and its interlinear tabbā; the former written in sufficiently big, quite legible, uniform and very good hand-writing; same is practically the case with the tabbā except that it is written in a slightly smaller hand-writing ; borders ruled in two lines and edges in one in red ink ; foll. numbered in the right-hand margin; fol. 1a blank; so is the fol. 68903; in several cases letters are not quite legible probably because foll. stick together when separators have left behind some paper to stick to the writing-surface or so a line or two on some of the last foll. gone ; fol. 4 slightly torn; fol. 233 partly worn out; foll. 368 to 400 more or less damaged: foll. 686 and 687 badly torn; condition on the whole good; the text complete the tabba, too is almost so3
