PREFACEOuB, earliest-acquired Prakrit MSS. are those in the collection, mainly Sanskrit,bought in 1842 from Horace Hayman Wilson, the first Boden Professor (1832) of

Sanskrit at Oxford. Of the 84 items in this catalogue, they number 13.In 1843 no. 58 was bought in the Ouseley collection. It had belonged to

Sir William Ouseley, the Orientalist, who had died in Sept. 1842.In 1845 nos. 13, 22, 63, 410, 461 were presented by Sir William Walker. They

had belonged to his father, brigadier-general Alexander Walker, once governor ofBaroda, who died in 1832.

In 1849 were bought nos. 24, 313, 409-11, 457-60, with the collection ofSanskrit MSS. belonging to Dr. William Hodge Mill, formerly Principal of Bishop'sCollege, Calcutta.

In 1872 were deposited the two MSS., belonging to the RadcUffe Library(formerly to James Fraser), which are nos. 53, 833.

In 1887 were bought from Dr. Eugen Hultzsch, with some hundreds of SanskritMSS., the remaining 55.

Dr. Keith has constructed his catalogue to a scheme of details formulated bymyself.

The Contents and the Index of Shelfmarks have been drawn up respectivelyby Mr. Strickland Gibson, M.A., and Mr. Reginald Harrison Hill, Bodleian Assistants.The Palaeographical Index is by Mr. Gibson and myself.

The whole has been seen through the press by Dr. Arthur Ernest Cowley,Fellow of Magdalen College, one of the two Sub-Librarians.

In the collection of 6,330 MSS. given in 1909 by His Excellency the MaharajahSir Chandra Shum Shere Jung Bahadur Rana, G.C.B., Hon. D.C.L., Prime Ministerof Nepal, other Prakrit MSS. have accrued since this catalogue was in type, and willdoubtless appear some day in a 2nd vol.

The MS. is extremely inaccurate, and has evidentlybeen copied by a scribe totally ignorant of Sanskritand Prakrit.

See Mitra, Bikaner Gatal., p. a8o; Weber, Gatal.,II, 27a, a73, which is very probably (because ofthe date,sake 1706) a copy of the MS. described in Aufrecht,Flor. Gatal., p. 158 ; these two have only 73 verses.There is a diagram on f. 3. The text is bounded oneither side by two red lines.

The S'ripalacaritra was written in A. d. 1373,Peterson, Report, 1886-1893, p. ciii.

It seemsprobable that the same hand which wrote the MS.also wrote the commentary, and probably the scribeof the text was the author of the commentary, whichis merely a word for word gloss.

56MS. Sansk. d. 297Yogindradeva's Faramatmaprakaia, 17th cent. PContents : the Paramatmaprakasa of Yogindradeva,

a Digambara Jaina work in 346 verses, especially uponthe metaphysical system of the Jainas, with a Sanskritcommentary. After a long table of contents, endingon f. 4'^, the ist verse begins : ye jdyd jhdnaggiyaikammakalamka dahevi I niccaniramjanandnarnaya teparamappa navevi II i II The comm. reads jhdnagniyae.Verse a is on f. 6 : te vadail sirisiddhagana \ hosahimje vi anamta \ sivama'imniruvamandnamaya I paramasormdhi bhajamta II a II The comm. reads JiaVm andsivamayaP. Ver. 345 is illegible, but ver. 344 on f. 179runs : jam mdim kimpi vijarnpi yail 1 juttdjuttu vi etthu 1tarn varandni khamamtu mahu I je bujhahim para-matthu I) 344 II In the explanation the comm. againgives Yogindradeva as the author's name.

The work is written in a modern and very inaccurateform of Mahara^gtri Prakrit. The text is not veryaccurate, but the commentary is good.

The Prakrit words are usually separated by strokesabove the line. Vi is always as usual joined to thepreceding word. See Sansk. Cat., no. 1374.
