  The manuscript belonged to a kRSNabhairava; excess space after the mUla often ends with 
  kRSNabhairavasya or kRSNabhairavasyedAM (e.g., f. 118v) or kRSNabhairavasyedaM (f. 120r) 
  or kRSNAjIbhairavasyedaM (f. 129v) or [or some other invocation, like sIddhezvarAya namaH, 
  f. 117v, zrIrAmacaMdrAya namaH f. 120r)]. This not added by another hand, but written by 
  the scribe. 
  Most clear: kRSNabhairavasyedaM pustakaM syAt (f. 132r). Also occurs at excess space at 
  the end of the TIkA, e.g., f. 160v: kRSNAjIbhairavasyedaM. f. 161v: kRSNAjIbhairavasyedaM 
  pustakaM.
