Śṛṅgāra-pradīpa

Source control

The programme reports a damaged copy printed at Munshi Naval Kishore Press, Lucknow, in 1886, with approximately 116 songs and a warning that the original may have been larger. That approximate damaged-copy count is not treated as a canonical total.

Precise gaps

• No complete root witness is controlled; eight exact and variant searches found no assignable copy.
• The programme's own 1886 witness was damaged and contained approximately 116 songs, while warning that the original may have been larger.
• The exact root extent, missing leaves or songs, opening, ending, contents, canonical order, numbering, and repetition pattern remain unknown.
• The complete root has no scan-controlled transcription or complete fresh English translation.
• The sixteen visible documentary groups are programme examples, not canonical song numbers.
• No complete standalone reader, print view, bilingual PDF, root facsimile, or root download is available.
• Scan 383 is a mixed boundary page: it completes Bhajana-ratnāvalī before opening this work.
