were the result of his mature experience. Once more I
cordially thank all those whom Bh膩sa drew towards me,
and hope that they would keep up the same regard for me.
I must also record my obligations to the staff of the
Imperial Library, Calcutta; the University Library,
Bombay; the Bhandarkar Institute Library; the S. P.
College Library, and the Kesari-Maratha Library, Poona,
and the Bombay Royal Asiatic Society Library (during
May 1932) whose willing and ready help saved me a lot of
time and trouble. I have consulted in some form or
other the works and articles referred to by me. The
difficulty in procuring books may be imagined when I state
that in spite of the above Libraries being at my disposal,
there are half a dozen articles, notably from the S膩rada of
Allahabad, which I could not come across.
Finally, I take this opportunity of recording my
thanks to the well-known firm of Oriental Publishers,
Meharchand Lachhman Das, but for whose enterprise in
the cause of Sanskrit learning, this book would not have
seen the light of day. The firm has all along been kind
and courteous, to me; and in spite of the impracticability
of the final proofs passing before my eyes, they have
accomplished the task quite creditably. For the few
mistakes inevitable under such circumstances, crave
indulgence of the generous readers. have invited
attention in the 'Addenda et Corrigenda' to the
important corrections only.
