Manuscript Features

Fol. 2r/v is in reverse order.

This MS was listed as a MTM giving two tittles; Durgāstotra and Caṇḍikāśatanāmastotra in the PTL. But there are not two separate texts in the MS.. Since the pagination, in the middle left-hand margin, starts from the figure 5, it might be possible that one text was mistakenly left out while microfilming.
