• Hindu and Early Indian Vol III - notes taken from sources such as Hopkins, Fick and Senart

• Hindu and Early Indian Vol V - notes taken from sources such as Fry, Jolly, Hunter, Uyavahav, Mayutha
• Hindu and Early Indian Vol VI - notes taken from sources such as Jolly, Weber, Baden Powell, Lyall, Zimmer, McGrindle and Yule's Marco Polo
