              The manuscript is a copy of Gogerly's translation of the Thūpavaṃsa, completed in the middle of the 19th century in Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The item contains 62 loose sheets; the text being written on one side. It seems that Gogerly's translation was transcribed by two people, as the cursive on pages 1-25 is different from the one on pages 25-63. Translated from Pāli or Sinhalese to English. The text is written in black ink and contains many corrections. The Thūpavaṃsa narrates the history of the relics of Śākyamuni Buddha, and contains a rich depiction of the institutionalisation of the Buddha-Śāsana in Ceylon during the reigns of kings Aśoka and Devanampiyatissa, as well as the construction of relic monuments by the later king Duṭṭhagāmaṇī. The central focus of this work concerns the variety of relics associated with the historical Buddha, particularly how the relics were acquired and the presumed benefits of venerating them. Translated from Pali or Sinhalese. Approx. 31.7cmX21.7cm.

              Part of Papers of Daniel John Gogerly

              The manuscript is the text taken from the Dhammapada-datthakathā. Handwritten by Gogerly in the Sinhalese script, probably before November 6, 1847 in Sri Lanka (Ceylon). No English translation. The original text is the commentary on the Dhammapada, and is ascribed to jātaka-aṭṭhakathās - the traditional commentaries explaining the canonical Theravada Buddhist jātakas, the tales concerning the previous births of Gautama Buddha. It contains stories similar to those of the jātakas and explains the occasions on which the Dhammapada verses were uttered. It was written in the last centuries BCE. 65 blue pages; the text is written only on one side of a sheet. Slightly fragile. 21.1cmX17.3cm.

              The manuscript is a Gogerly transcription of Rosyk's translation of the Dhammapada (verses 72-203). Handwritten by Gogerly, in Sri Lanka (Ceylon); date unknown. The item includes two small brown-paper notebooks (32/28 pages, respectively) in a single cover. In the first notebook (verses 1-71) seems to be missing. The text in the Sinhalese script is written on the left hand side pages, leaving the right hand side pages for English translation. Brownish paper, brown ink. The English text is full of notes and corrections. The Dhammapada is a collection of sayings (423 in total) of the Buddha in verse form, and is one of the most widely read Buddhist scriptures. The original version of the Dhammapada is found in the Khuḍḍaka Nikāya division of the Theravādin Pāli Canon, and was written around the 3rd century BCE. Each saying recorded in the collection was made on a different occasion in response to a unique situation that had arisen in the life of the Buddha and his monastic community. 15.8cmX10.4cm.
