End-Same as No. 3802." Colophon: इति श्रीकविचक्रचूडामणि भट्टनारायणसुतरविदेवविरचिते

प्रन्थसंख्या ३१० ॥ Subject: Nalodayakávyam. 2nd and 4th Ullīsas. Remarke:-The Ms. is in a very decaying condition. The Ms.
abruptly begins in 8th verse of 2nd Ullása and several blokas are missing in the middle.
The author says that he is the son of Bhatta Nārāyana. It is not known whether this Bhattanarayana is the same as the author of the Veņisambära, or any other Bhattanarayana. The work under notice is a rare work. The Ms. is in a fragmentary condition and is withering away. The beginning in this Ms. is the same as that attributed to Kālidāsa under No. 3802 but the colophon is different. Several scholars have been doubting Kālidāta's authorship of the Nalodayakävya and this colophon strengthens the suspicion. There is very little of poetry in this work,
