Rajendralala's surmise that the date of the manuscript is L.S. 159 = A.D. 1366 is wrong, as Jayadeva belonged to the end of the 15th century. See Preface to Khandanoddhāra, written by Vácaspati Miśra of Mithila and edited by Pandita Vindhyeśvari Prasāda Dvivedi. Mahesa Thakkura obtained the Dvārabhāngā Rāj in 1556 A.D. His elder brother Bhagiratha was a pupil of Jayadeva, otherwise called Pakşadhara, the author of the present work. So Jayadeva cannot go before the end of the 15th century. The present manuscript must have been copied in Saka 1509 = 1587 A.D. The entry "911ci | Hei 40€” is misleading
