About this Manuscript

This contains a treatise on erotics. Its title and the name of the author, Mīnanātha, are given in both the introductory stanzas and in the completion statement at the end. However, the 33 text here differs almost entirely from the published edition of 1967, though the first line is roughly equivalent, and there are occasional parallels. A note on the title page says the manuscript belongs to the collection of one Ouessant from Pondicherry, but it does not appear in the list the library acquired from him.
