[^ *]: Articles containing an account of the discovery of the manuscript in some part of the text and an estimate of its date of compilation have appeared in the Journal of the Bengal Asiatic Society, for Nov. 1890 and April 1891, as well as in the issue of the Indian Antiquary of 1892 A.D. At present, the work is being printed by Dr. Rudolf Hornul. [^ **]: Burnell’s Catalogue. [^ ***]: Bauer’s manuscripts contain a work on ‘Mantra Śāstra’ which clearly appears to have been written by a Buddhist. The Sanskrit of Pāśakāvalī is not quite pure. The followers of Buddhism were more inclined to compile works in Prakrit than in Sanskrit. It would appear from this that Pāśakāvalī may have belonged to the times of Candragupta.
