Manuscript Features

The following folios are extant: 1-63; 67-75. The actual order of folios is as follows: 1-7; 9; 10; 8; 11; 12-13?; 14-63; 67-75. Fol. 75, which is unnumbered and continues the text from fol. 74v, is both of another shape and script compared with all the other folios. Some folios are slightly damaged at the margins. There are a few corrections carried out by a second hand. There is another folio (exps. 122-123), the writing of which has been rubbed off to a great extent, which seems not to be a part of the Jvarasamuccaya.
