Notes

• Title from colophon (f. 72v).
   
• Written in 10-11 lines per leaf.
   
• 73 leaves foliated 1-73, upper left and lower right verso.
   
• Dated after 1829, the date in the watermark. The post-colophon date of śaka 1735 (1813) (f. 73r) suggests that this manuscript is a later copy of one written in 1813.
   
• Watermarks of a coat of arms with a lion holding a scepter and the date 1829.
   
• Mistakes covered over in yellow or blacked out; some corrections and additions in margins; significant syllables, words, or phrases highlighted in red throughout most of the manuscript; vertical margins marked with double red line.
