"The collection is important for the works of Moropant in his own hand. It is also important for bringing to the notice of scholars some of the hitherto unknown works in Marathi as well as in Sanskrit. A list of such works has been attached at the end of Vol.II" - Introduction (p. xiii). The collection was donated by the celebrated Marathi poet Moropant's (Moreshwar Ramachandra Paradkar 1729-1794 A.D.) descendents.
