The first notice of the work that forms the subject of the present paper was given in Dr. Daniel Wright's “History of Nepal,” where, at p. 322, the title of the book occurs in the list of Sanskrit MSS. procured for the University of Cambridge. In examining this collection in the years 1880–3, I noted the work as related to the Pañca-tantra.
page 466 note 1 Called S in the critical notes to § IV. below.
page 467 note 1 The expression Tenāham in the introductory verse to Tale 21 cited below points to a very similar usage. Tale 28 ends “evam ‘anyathā cintitam’ iti.” See the full verse below.
page 467 note 2 See Tale 42.

page 468 note 1 In Tale 10 (not printed) we find the forms āgrahārika for a brahman who has received an agrahāra or royal donative: and just below, the form kulaputrikā (ironically ?) for a low-caste woman, analogous to the sense of kulaputra cited from Vaijayanti by Kavīndra Sarasvati on Daçakumāra-c° (p. 136, l. 20, ed. Bombay, 1883). See also Pt. III., notes on Tale 42 A.
page 470 note 1 For several of these comparisons I am indebted to the help of friends to whom I have showed proofs of my paper, especially to Mr. Tawney, Dr. Morris Mr. J. F. Blumhardt, Dr. Fausböll, Mr. Ward, and Mr. H. T. Francis. Professor Cowell and Professor Bühler gave me help in this and in other parts of the paper.
page 470 note 2 Cited by Fausböll's running numbers. It is much to be regretted, as Prof. Fausböll has at present published no index, that his running numbers differ somewhat from those of the only accessible index, that of Westergaard (Codd Havn, i. 37).
page 473 note 1 This and the rest of the tales are not numbered in the Sanskrit MS. (S).
page 478 note 1 Cf. Raghu-v. VI. 10, yānam parivāra-çobhi.

page 483 note 2 Mistaken or Prakritized for gharshnsi.
page 484 note 1 Sarve MS.
page 485 note 1 Probably an allusion to the snake-king's two thousand tongues (Harivaṃça, 6326).
page 485 note 2 So, too, in the Jātaka (No. 215, Fausböll): Sace tvam mukham rakkhitum sakhissasi.

page 486 note 4 mṛigayāgamat … nidrāgamat, MS.
page 486 note 5 Dr. Bühler suggests: tasyām dhvanksha-man°. ‘With respect to her the crow thought.’ Perhaps we should read °ākānkshamānasya manasy°.
page 487 note 1 Something appears to be wanting here.
page 487 note 2 I have not verified this citation from the Mbh. (?).

page 487 note 5 paçyasi putrasya, S. Dr. Bühler proposes: Mṛitam paçyasi putraḥ tvaḥ.
page 487 note 6 Dr. Böhler has suggested to me that karoti may be a Prakritic corruption for kurv iti or karotv iti.

page 489 note 2 There would seem to be a small lacuna here, although the taiḥ (cakravākaiā) to be supplied with cintitam may, of course, be carried on to poshitaḥ.

page 492 note 2 paravasā tta (?) ntraiYopa°.
page 492 note 3 I venture on this form, as the text which reads °bhuja is clearly corrupt. The very use of sa for 
seems to point to a lacuna. In the following clause adṛishṭā is improperly used, on the analogy of apaāçyantah, for na drishṭavantah.
page 492 note 4 drishtha MS.
page 492 note 5 °tān, MS.
page 493 note 1 hatah for hatavān, like adṛishṭā, in Tale 30 above. There is possibly something to be supplied, from the extreme abruptness of the concluding sentences.

page 495 note 1 Anupraveçakaṃ, S. The substantive is new, not being found in the dictionaries.
