Small index letters indicate the beginning and the end of a correspondence in the edited text. For the meaning of the signs characterizing the different kinds of textual remains cf. E. STEINKELLNER, Methodological Remarks on the Constitution of Sanskrit Texts from the Buddhist pramāna-Tradition. WZKS 32 (1988) 103-129. An addition to the signs given there (p.
