Publisher's Note
INI
It gives us great pleasure in placing in the hands of Oriental Scholars, Gahākosa Part II as the fifth volume in the B. L. Series.
We sincerely thank Professor M. V. Patwardhan, M. A., a renowned Sanskrit and Prakrit Scholar, for his learned edition of the Jain version of Hālā's Gā thàsaptašati, which he has meticulously prepared in spite of his indifferent health. Our thanks are due to Shri. G. G. Barve, Manager, Ved Vidya Mudranalaya, Pune, for the neat printing and attractive get-up.
This volume, it is sincerely hoped, will be warmly received by scholars in Prakrit and Sanskrit poetry, as an excellent companion volume to this famous treasure of the best lyric poetry in Prakrit.
