It only remains to mention the MSS. on which this edition of Nityotsava is based. They are as follows: 1. A grantha manuscript copy of the Adyar Library, No. XXXV B 103; cited as 34. 2. Another grantha manuscript copy of the Adyar Library, No. VIII F 18; cited as 37 9. 3. A grantha manuscript copy kindly lent by Mr. M. V. Srinivasa Iyer of Triplicane, Madras; cited as sft. 4-6. Devanagari MS. copies of Central Library, Baroda, Acc. Nos. 183, 4637, 5572; cited as a 9, ar, a respectively. 7. A Telugu MS. copy borrowed by Pandit R. Avantakrishna Sastri from the owner in the Nizam’s Dominions, cited as 97. Of these No. 3 is the most carefully prepared copy. The others are all tolerably correct, except for some clerical errors. Two or three of these MSS. contain each here and there passages not found in the other MSS. Of these the important and useful ones have been embodied in this edition, the source being noted in each case. A. MAHADEVA SASTRI
