<title xml:lang="sa">Dvātriṃśatputtalikāsiṃhāsana, ed. Vidyāsāgara Pulwama Collection, eGangotri ark:/13960/t2k72wv36 https://archive.org/details/dwatrimshatputtalikasimhasanampublisherunknown_202001

This version of the Vikramacarita, here titled Dvātriṃśatputtalikāsiṃhāsana, was first edited by Jīvānanda Vidyāsāgara in 1881. The present edition seems to be the third, from 1938, since it incorporates errata noted in the 1916 edition. Franklin Edgerton used the 1881 text as a witness for the southern recension in his own edition; Edgerton's text is more complete, with respect to the parallels with the Vahnipurāṇa.

This copy was digitized by eGangotri in 2022.
