The serial number for the Mss. given in the rectangular Bracket in the top-line of a page requires a word or explanation. On every even page, a number referring to the Ms. of which the description is continued or in the absence of such a Ms., a number p rtaining to the very first Ms. taken up for description, ought to be usually given; instead of that in the present part the number of the last Ms. taken up for description is given. I was all the while under the impression that this different method introduced in my Catalogue by the Publication Department and so I did not modify it. But, very recently when I came across a printed form of the Alamkara, Samgīta and Natya, the 12th Volume of Descriptive Catalogue of the Government Collections of Manuscripts, I found therein the other method followed. On this matter being referred to the Hon. Secretary, it was decided that the method followed up till now should be given up and the other method should be adopted in order that there might be uniformity as regards the Descriptive Catalogues published by the Institute. Consequently the method adopted in this part as well as in the first part, will be discontinued hereafter.
The system of transliteration followed here is identical with that adopted in Part I as will be seen from page xxiii.
All textual matter which appeared to me to be superfluous is enclosed within rectangular brackets [ I, while additions and alterations, are enclosed within parantheses (
).
As regards the appendices given in this part, I may say that they are different from those referred to in the preface (p. xiv) of Part I.
These have been utilized from p. 221 in this part.
