"[Leumann's beautiful edition of the Aupapātikasūtra ... the work is noteworthy on account of the presence of nearly all the important Varņakas which are often referred to in other parts of the canon.

1 Uvangasuttāņi 4:2 (1989, 13) mentions an edition of Uvav. perhaps by Yuvācārya Mahāprajña, but provides
no details. 2 The copy in the British Library is missing p. 17-32.
The Pāța copy seen (Hemacandra Jain Bhāndār) is bound between boards without a solid spine, and the head, foot and leading edge of the pages have been rather indifferently marbled with a combed pattern (colours used are red, yellow, blue and a darker colour perhaps dark green or black). In the same collection I saw another copy of this work in poorer condition) bound identically and with the same coloured boards (a light plum colour) and marbling, which suggests the binding is original.
