The library in the Sanghavînopado at Pâtan is known to be peculiarly rich in palm-leaf manuscripts. A list, with extracts, was prepared for Dr. Bühler by Narayana Shastri of Surat ; but it has not been thought expedient to publish it in the absence of further examination in situ of the manuscripts themselves. I hope I may be able to present it, after such examination, in my next report. On the present occasion I was unable to obtain admission to this bhandar on account of the absence of the priest in whose charge it is. His people showed me, however, the books contained in a box that was lying in the outer court of the bhandar; and by good luck four of these were palmleaf ones. Two are incomplete, and seem to be fragments of
different books. A third is a copy of the The Raghuvilasana.
.drama by Ramachandra, the famous one-eyed taka of Ramachandra.
pupil of Hemachandra, which was first brought to notice by Dr. Bübler. (No. 760 in his collection of 1875-6.
