Edition, numbering and licence

Trivandrum Sanskrit Series no. 10, ed. T. Gaṇapati Śāstrī, Trivandrum 1910 (public domain); scan: https://archive.org/details/TSS010MatangalilaOfNilakanthaTGSastri1910_201809. Read from the page images (printed pages 1–41; a page's image is leaf N+3 of the scan) by HREEM's reader, a language model, not by OCR — in these old prints OCR misreads most verses. Not yet proofread by a person; check any verse against the scan. Verse numbers are the edition's own, and every chapter runs without a gap. Readings the reader was unsure of: 1.5, 1.7, 1.16.
