Form: | folia |
Material: | paper |
Extent: | 115 |
Dimension: | 14 x 33.7 cm |
Foliation: |
folios: 113ff. {plus 2 - ff.2-3 are doubled = ff. 115)
ff. 2 is repeated and there is not textual consistency with the previous fol.
Sections of the commentary and mUla for verse 3 and 4 are repeated.
It seems that f. 2[a]r may be continuous with f. 2[b]r and the text of f. 2[a]r ends at verse two commentary whereas the 2[b]r picks up on verse 3 mUla, followed by the commentary.
There are two folio 3's
Fol. 3[a] may follow from 2[b]v {at least it does numerically};
however, the commentary does not follow the printed edition of ZrIdharasvamin's commentary that I have.
formula: 1-2[a], 2[b], 3[a], 3[b]-115 |
Condition: | good |
Binding: | Piece of uneven (broken) board, with carving boarder: 38.2 cm X 12-14.5 cm |
Layout: | after the first two opening verses of the mUla, which are separated through indentation from the commentary, the text then begins to integrate, continuously, the commentary and mUla (with mUla coming first, marked by number - 3, 4, 5, etc. then the number repeated after the commentary). |

Acquisition: |
(David Nelson (2000: 203)) describes the acquisition of the Sanskrit manuscripts in the University of Pennsylvania Library as follows:
“ The University of Pennsylvania Library possesses a collection of almost 3,300 Indic manuscripts, the largest such collection in the Western hemisphere. While the vast majority of these manuscripts are from India, there are also a number of manuscripts from Burma, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Tibet. Some of the manuscripts had been acquired in chance fashion by the Library and the University Museum before 1930, but in that year, at the request of Professor W. Norman Brown (1892-1975), Provost Josiah Penniman provided a sum of money to purchase Indic manuscripts. Shortly thereafter he obtained a donation from the late Mr. John Gribbel. Substantial contributions from Dr. Charles W. Burr, the Faculty Research Fund, and the Cotton Fund soon followed. The bulk of the manuscripts are the result of purchases made using these funds in India, between 1930 and 1935, under the direction of Professor W. Norman Brown. ” |
