The ekāras of an akṣara extend up only halfway from the base to the mātrā.
On fol. 139v is written in a different hand:
❖ †vanayauvanayaukharvvati nāsī / nāmī sa kṛpo kṛpaḥ | kurvvantu maṅgalate te, avatārā harer ddaśa ||
saṃvahaṃ govāhanaṃ yasya, tricakaṃ yasya bhūṣaṇaṃ | sālapā vāmabhāge ca, sa deva śaraṇaṃ mama† ||
On exp. 41t, there are five miscellaneous ślokas beginning as:
❖ ko [ʼ]malaṃ kamalaṃ prātaḥ, prakāśayati nityaśaḥ | atra kartṛpadaṃ jñeyaṃ, māsamadhye dvayāvadhi || etc.
The colophon is full of scribal errors.
