Manuscript Features
Folios 1-6 belong to a different manuscript. Fol. 6 ends: devāḥ pratiyayur ddivam || (=10.02.042) iti dvitīyo 'dhyāyaḥ ||. The second, bigger part of the manuscript starts with folio 5 and begins: °n prahasann idam abravīt || pratiyātu kumāro (=10.01.059-060).
The commentary is written with small letters in the margins around the mūla, as well as corrections to the text. Some folios are broken at the edges with loss of parts of the commentary. The writing is rubbed off in places, again with more loss of the commentary and of foliation than of the mūla. Folios are in disorder. Some folios might be missing, but we cannot say which.
