Sources 1880: Pischel's text based on nine MSS:-A. Bikaner No. 271, samvat 1549, text only; B. Vadhvan no. 724, 90 (ie 91) folios, text and cty, probably 18th cent. [BORI no. 724 of 1875-76];-C. modern copy of a MS from Ahmedabad, prepared for Bühler. No. 184, 315 f., text and cty., original dated samvat 1587 [original now BORI 159 of 1881-82]; D. from Pālī (near Jodhpur), Marwar, no. 270, 32 f., text and cty, incomplete;E. from Ahmedabad, belonging to Bühler, 20 f., text only, colophon [samvat?] 1575, incomplete [BORI 281 of 1880-81];-F. MS from Limaḍī, collated by Bühler's Pandits with C., close to B; G. from Bikaner, no. 271, 46 f., best text of the cty, damaged; H. Ahmedabad (government collection purchase 1879), 62 f., samvat 1628, "carelessly written and of no value at all.";-I. MS belonging to Pandit Bhagvanlal Indraji, 86 f., text and cty, archetype of G, high quality. Described on pages 27-28 (Introduction of 1880). "There are not many words in which all the MSS agree in the use of [the letters ca, va and ba, ttha and ccha, tha and dha, bbha and jjha, ha, ddha, tta, ttha, ddha]. In order to ascertain the correct reading I was very often obliged to have recourse to etymology. Where that failed me, I had nothing to guide me but the best MS, which, however, is by no means quite trustworthy" (Pischel, Introduction, p. 28).
