Manuscript Features
Out of the originally 79 fols. of the text, fols. 26–30 and 35 are missing.
Fols. 32–34 and 36–37 are damaged in the margin.
The writing on some fols. is partly rubbed off.
In the end, three more fols. containing a list of contents (sūcīpattra) are appended (exp. 79–81).
On the verso of fol. 79 (exp. 78 top) and of the last fol. of the sūcīpattra (exp. 78 bottom) portions of other texts written in differing styles of the Newari script are to be seen, as the copyist was using these fols. for writing on.
On the index card of the NGMPP the title of the work has been mistakenly transcribed Narapati vijaya caryā svarīdayaḥ.
This MS is also described in BSP vol. I, p. 109, viṣayāṅka 197.
