Title from colophon (f. 8v); alternate title Stavarājamāhātmya from verse two of the text (f. 1r). Written in 12-14 lines per leaf. 8 leaves foliated 1-8, upper left and lower right verso. Colophon: iti śrībhaviṣyottarapurāṇe ṣaṣṭāṃśe caturthākalpe brahmanaṃdīkeśvarasaṃvāde stavarājotāma aṣṭādaśodhyāyaḥ // cha // cha // idaṃ pustakaṃ limayopanāmavireśvarabhaṭṭasya svayaṃ likhitaṃ saṃvat 1753 samaye śrāvaṇaśuddhatṛtīyāvārasukta[ma]śubhastu // (f. 8v). Dated saṃvat 1753 (1696) (f. 8v). Though the date appears to be saṃvat 1753, it may well be saṃvat 1953 or 1896 AD given that the characters for "7" and "9" can, under certain scribal hands, be interchanged or similar; the manuscript paper does not appear to be as old as other 17th century works in the Penn collection, though it is possibly that early. Mistakes blacked out; some corrections and additions in margins. Non-Latin script record. Formerly owned by Vireśvarabhaṭṭa Limaya (f. 8v).
