Dhātupāṭha

Contents

Language(s): sa

Title: Dhātupāṭha

Written in the Śāradā character.

The beginning and the end arelost.

No title in the original. In the margin is written dhā pā which probably stands for Dhātupāṭha. This text is a variant of Pāṇinīya text.

On the binding of the volume it figures as Dhātupārāyaṇa, and a work of that name by Pūrṇacandra is recorded by Bendall, Journey in Nepal, p.43, while other texts are also known (Brit. Mus. Catal., pp.161)

The Ms. is very freely supplied with glosses in small characters. Some leaves are very dark and illegible. Most leaves are injured.
