APPENDIX V.
REFERENCES TO BHASA AND HIS WORKS.
In Chapters II, III, IV and VI, we have already quoted many
references to Bh膩sa including Nos. 1-18, 20-23 and 25 as given by Prof.
Devadhar in App. C (pp. 573-577) to his Bh膩san膩峁璦kacakra. Nos.
19 and 24 from Prof. Devadhar's list appear below as Nos. 4 and 11.
Much doubt has been expressed as to the genuineness of the references
given by S. Narayana Sastri from Kavih峁沝aya, (alleged to be a work
of Dandin) and Kavyanu艣膩sana, (alleged to be a commentary on
Kavih峁沝aya by Hemacandra), as MSS of these works have not yet been
discovered or even known; these references occur as Nos. 3, 9 and 12
in this Appendix, and we have taken them from Pt. R. V.
Krishnamachariar's Bhumika to the Priyadarsika (pp. xxii-xxiii, xxvi).
No. 1 below is from Abhinavabh膩rati (Natya艣膩stra, Vol. 1, pp. 251-252,
GOS) where the Editor of the Natya艣膩stra, proposes for e, and
Dr. Stein (IHQ, XIV, pp. 638-639) and Prof. Kane (PCV, p. 394)
approve of the emendation. The next quotation is from Kumarapala-
pratibodha (p. 81, GOS), No. 5 is from the Natyadarpana (p. 53,
GOS and No. 6 has been taken from Dr. Keith's History of Sanskrit
Literature (p. 336) where he states it to be from Udayasundarikath膩
of Sod岣峢ala. Sarasvati kanthabhara峁嘺...(Kavyam膩l膩, p. 215) supplies
us with the next quotation, and the following one, alleged by S.
Narayana Sastri to be from Kavivimar艣a of Rajasekhara (cf.
Krishnamachariar, Priyadarsik膩, Bhumik膩, pp. xxi-xxii, xxv-xvvi) occurs
in the Sarngadharapaddhati (No. 188, p. 30, Bom. Sanskrit
Series, No. XXXVII ). For No. 10, we are indebted to Prof. P. K.
Gode, Curator, Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, Poona, who
supplied this, the only inscriptional reference to Bhasa, so far available.
As stated by Prof. Gode, it occurs on p. 28, Arch忙ological Survey of
India, No. 5, 1876-Inscriptions from Kathiawad and Kutch.
