1. Sher-Phyin, edited by Babu Pratapa Chandra Ghosha, is a literal 

 translation in the Tibetan of the S'ata Sahasrika Prajfia Paramita, other- 

 wise called the Raksha Bhagavati, the extent of which is estimated at 

 100,000 slokas of 32 letters each. The work is written in prose, and 

 contains so much repetition of the same matter, in words as well as in 

 sentiments, that the editor has been obliged to omit them, giving only 

 the catch- words of the matter repeated. The hundred thousand slokas 

 will not, it is expected, take so many fasciculi as the bulk of the MSS. 

 would indicate. No. 729. Vol. I, Fasc, II. Total o?ie fasciculus.
