PREFATORY NOTE.

THE following pages contain the Sanskrit text of the first five

chapters of the Nala-episode from the Maha-bharata, together

with that of the preface and nineteen fables of the Hitopadcya.

The text is a reprint of the first forty -four pages of my Sanskrit

Reader, transliterated from the NagarI characters into English

letters. The system of transliteration coincides with that used

by Whitncy in his Grammar and by me in Parts n. and m. of the Reader. To make the beginnings easier, I have capitalized

the proper names in the Naja and punctuated it in Occidental

fashion.

The Vocabulary and Nows of the Reader apply exactly

also to tllis reprint, inasmuch as the reprint corresponds page

for page and line for line with its original.

With the help of the Grammar and of the Reader and of

this reprint - which is here published by way of respouse to

various requests and suggestions - the student will be able to

acquire a knowledge of the forms and structure of the Sanskrit

language and to do some reading 1 without first troubling himself

to learn the NngarI alphabeL

Bcrlsal, on the Simplon Road, Charles R. Lanman, Switzerland, September, 1888. of Harvard College,

Cambridge, Massachusetts, U. S. A.
