As Peng Hanran states in his preface to the 1906 edition (1:303), the compi-
lation that he and He Longxiang inherited and expanded derived partly from
the Daozang and partly from extra canonical editions. This accounts for the
variants, sometimes noticeable, found in works that theJiyao shares with the
Daozang.

Daozang mulu xiangzhu
Detailed Commentary on the Index of the Taoist Canon
The Daozang mulu xiangzhu in four juan is an annotated catalogue of the
Ming Canon, compiled in 1626 by the Taoist Master Bai Yunji El ~5ii of the
Chaotian gong tJj 7( g (Palace in Homage to Heaven) in Nanjing (Jiangsu).
Two copies of the text included in the Siku quanshu [9 J!l[ 3t If (Complete

1* (1874-1952). In his prefatory notes on the text, Ding identifies Bai Yunji as
the author, but the title page of the edition he reproduces bears the name Li
Jie *;$ of Liaozuo )fir: (Shandong). The text proper is preceded by a copy
of the "Baiyun guan chongxiu Daozangji" El ~Wt~ {~J11[~j§c (Records on
RestOring the Taoist Canon at the Abbey of the White Clouds) dating to 1845·
It is likely that Ding simply published a slightly variant Qing printing of the
text with faulty attribution. The Jesuit scholar Leon Wieger likewise seems
to have had access to just such an edition when he compiled his index to the
Taoist Canon in 19II. Copies of the text in rare book collections include a Qing
manuscript of ca. 1736-1820 at Seikado Bunko in Tokyo and a fragmentary
