Manuscript Features

The majority of the MS-leaves are broken at both - right and left - margins so that the foliation is not preserved. There are a few exceptions, where the letter numerals at the left margin of the verso can be read: fol. 6, 8, 1⁅1⁆, 1⁅3⁆.

The folios are put slightly out of order and must be read as follows:

• fol. 1r (this folio, being now at the end of the MS, is filled with an excerpt of some medical text in Newari language, written by a hand different from that of the main MS): exp. 24
• fol. 1v (beginning of the text proper, s. below): exp. 23 bottom
• fol. 2r: exp. 23 top
• fol. 2v: exp. 22 bottom
• fol. 3r: exp. 22 top
• ...
• fol. 9v: exp. 15 bottom
• fol. 10r: exp. 4 bottom
• fol. 10v: exp. 5 top
• fol. 11r: exp. 5 bottom
• ...
• fol. 12v: exp. 7 top
• fol. 13r: exp. 8 bottom
• fol. 13v: exp. 9 top
• ...
• fol. 15v: exp. 11 top
• fol. 16r: exp. 14 bottom
• fol. 16v: exp. 15 top
• fol. 17r: exp. 13 top
• fol. 17v: exp. 12 bottom
• fol. 18r: exp. 12 top
• fol. 18v: exp. 11 bottom
• approx. 1 or 2 (?) folios missing
• fol. [last-2]r-v (the left half of this folio is broken off): exp. 7 bottom, 8 top
• fol. [last-1]r-v (s. End below): exp. 3 bottom, 4 top

The folios microfilmed in exp. 2+3top (the left half of this fol. is broken off) and exp. 13bottom+14top contain a medical compendium in Sanskrit. Different parts of these folios can be identified as excerpts from Suśrutasaṃhitā, Siddhasāra, some correspond with Bhāvaprakāśa, Garuḍapurāṇa etc.
