Manuscript Features

The hand changes with fol. 169r. In the bottom of 168v the second scribe has inserted some stanzas, beginning: jihvāṃ labdhvā pi yo viṣṇuṃ kīrttanīyaṃ na kīrrttayet | labdho pi mokṣaniḥśreṇī(!) sa nānārhati(?) durmmati(!) | Later in the text the hand changes once or twice again.

A couple of folios have a second foliation in the right margins, which differs from the original one: For example, folio no. 244 (according to original foliation) is numbered as 249 in the right-hand margin foliation.

Excerpts

Beginning

oṃ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya ||
