Manuscript Features
At the end of the MS there are two extra folios (fols. 38A and 38B), both unnumbered. The first additional folio, written in the same Newari script, begins with Kāvyādarśa 2.10b: kaṇṭhenāghūrṇṇitekṣaṇaḥ … and ends in the middle of the verso side with Kāvyādarśa 2.23c: … padme ʼpi sā. After the binding hole is written bhavanīśaraṇaṃ, perhaps by another hand. The second additional folio, written by a later hand, begins with Kāvyādarśa 2.1a: kāvyaśobhākarān … and ends on the same recto side with Kāvyādarśa 2.5ab: … samāsotiśayotprekṣā he°; the verso side is left blank. The MS contains marginal notes, mainly corrections, by both first and second hands.
