D. x. g. MS. on paper ; Brâhmi ; No. 33. Numerous very small fragments of a leaf.—Note xix. Nos. 33, 37, 38.

Characters : upright Gupta of eighth century. [Dr. Hoernle.]
D. x. 1o. a. MS. on paper ; Brâhmi ; No. 34. One large fragment, left side with string-hole, but number lost. —Note xx. Nos. 34 and 35. All belong to one leaf, number of which, however, is missing.
