According to a note, 1899, of the Reverend John Cameron, Chaplain, 93rd Highlanders, enclosed in the manuscript, it consists of a paraphrase and interpretation, composed by the ṛishis in recent times, of a few verses of the Ṛigveda, which are in this way adapted for the comparatively modern worship of the goddess Chaṇḍī (Devī); the pundit who gave him the manuscript said that it was about 200 years old, and had been in his family for that time.
