Incomplete manuscript of Rāmotaratāpatiya, presumably a misspelling of Rāmottaratāpanīya [Rāmottaratāpanī], in the Ātharvaṇarahasya [Atharvaṇarahasya]. Title from colophon (f. 11v). Extant folios numbered 4-11.
The number 1914 is provided in the colophon framed by double dandas, which is possibly a date reckoned in saṁvat years.
Written 10 lines per leaf.
Good condition. Double dandas and colophonal invocation in red. Right edge of f. 11 badly worm-eaten. Some worm holes in other folios. Mistakes crossed through with red or covered over with yellow. Marginal corrections.
Manuscript begins (f. 4r): garjadanuvālino vegato guhāt vālis tada[?] nijagāma taṁ vālinam athāhave 23
Ends (f. 11v): oṁ yo vai śrīrāmacaṁdraḥ sa bhagavān yaḥ saccidānaṁdadvaitakāras ātmā bhūr bhūvaḥ svas tasmai vai namo namaḥ 47
Colophon (f. 11v): ity etair vrahmāsaptacatvāriṁśanmaṁtrer nityaṁ devaṁ stauti tasya tasya stuto devaḥ prīto bhavati tasmād varā[?] tair maṁtrair nityaṁ devaṁ stauti sa devaṁ pasyati so 'mṛtatvaṁ ca gachati so mṛtatvaṁ ca gachatīti ity ātharvaṅarahasye rāmotaratāpatiyasamāmptaṁ 1915 śrīrāmacaṁdrāya namaḥ
