(1) Anandavardhana observes in his Dhvanyaloka (III. 11-12. pp. 335-36): इतिवृत्तवशायातां कथञ्चिद्रसाननुगुणां स्थिति त्यक्त्वा पुनरुत्प्रेक्ष्यप्यान्तराभीष्टरसोचितकथोत्रयो विधेयः यथा कालिदासप्रबन्धेषु / यथा च सर्वसेनविरचिते हरिविजये। Abhinavagupta thus explains in his Locana (p. 335) : ... हरिविजये कान्तानुनयनाङ्गत्वेन पारिजातहरणादिनिरूपितमितिहासेष्वदृष्टमपि / (ii) In his Vakroktijivita (De's Edn., 71) Kuntaka ranks Sarvasena along with Kalidasa for his graceful style of composition : एवं सहजसौकुमार्यसुभगानि कालिदाससर्वसेनादीनां काव्यानि दृश्यन्ते / तत्र सुकुमारस्वरूपं चर्चणीयम् / (iii) The very fact that Bhoja cites scores of verses from Sarvasena's HV to illustrate various points of poetics is eloquent of his high appreciation of Sarvasena's work. 31.
