Mr. Seshagiri Shastri makes the following remarks about the work and the author in his Report of 1893-94, p. 57“ The work was written by Bilvamangala who was latterly called also Lilāśuka, and contains three parts, each consisting of one hundred and odd stanzas. The work is written in praise of god Kışņa whose devotee the author was ........,He then went to a yati named Somagiri whose disciple he became and who taught him a mantra of the god Krsna ...... Lilāśuka lived before Jayadeva "
He gives a long legend in his account about Līlāśuka which is corroborated by a long saṁskrit passage by Autrecht from a commentary on Karņāmsta in his Catalagi Codicum Manuscriptorum; Bodleianae p. 128, No.231
The work is described in the I. O. Cat. pt. VII Nos. 3900-03.
