7. MS. G-68650
 
Of these, I was able to get a microfilm of the MS.
G. alone, and of the others I could get only the
transcripts.
 
The MS. G (17" X 1") is in Telugu script,
and in a good condition. It ends with the expression :
chandovat purāṇāni bhavanti. see the line 22 on
page 62. Thus it is almost complete. It has about
18 folios (17 and one side of the 18th), with eight
lines on each side, and about 70 syllables in each
line. Only the side of the leaf ending the work has
three lines. The writing is uniform and good. At
the beginning verses from 2 to 13 are missing, (see
Note 2) and at the end there is no colophon here
indicating the completion of the work. MSS A and
F have the colophon. See Note 239.
