RAMABHADRA-DIKSHITA AND THE SOUTHERN POETS.

and चोकनाथमखिन for चोकमाथमखिनामा: Such mistakes are not of uncommon occurrence in Dr. Burnell's Tanjore Catalogue, and I take advantage of this opportunity to note a few of them :
(1) P. 55, Rasikaranjini, a ţiká," by the anthor of the text, Appayadikshita" for "by Gangadharadhvarin on Appaya-Dikshita's Kuvalaydnanda."
(2) P. 172, Vidyáparinuyandtaka by Anandarayamakhin," son of Narayaņa" for "son of Nộisimhadhvarin."
(3) P. 170, Mallikamdruta, a prakarana" by Ranganatha of Lågapura" for "by Uddanda, son of Ranganatha of Laţapura."
(4) P. 174, Sabhdpativildsa, & ndļaka in 5 ankas "by Dharmaraja" for "by Venkatesvara, son of Dharmaraja."
(5) P. 163, "Harivaríasdracharita by Appayadikshita" for “Harivaníasdracharitavyakhyana by Appaya-Dikshita."
(6) P. 158, Tripurarijayachampi " by a son of Narayaņadikshita" for "by NrisimhaDikshita."
(7) P. 171, Raghunathavilása, a modern play in 5 ankas," founded on the Ramayana by Yajñanârâ yaņa" for " founded on the exploits of Raghunatha-Nayaka, one of the (Nayaka) rulers of Tanjore, &c."
(8) P. 173, Sringarasarvasvabhana, a bhdna "by Kausika Nallabudha, son of Nallabudha. son of Ramachandra" for "by Kausika-Nallâbudha, son of Balachandra."
(9) P. 158, Dharmarijaya. "Anon." for "by Bhuminátha-Kavi."
(10) P. 58, Sahityaralnákara. "Examples illustrating the rules of poetry in ten surgas. This work is called a Mahakávya, but there does not appear to be any continuous story in it." Dr. Burnell is totally incorrect. Sahityaratnákara by Yajnanarayana-Dikshita is a Mahákávya and is about Raghunatha-Nayaka of the Tanjore Nayaka dynasty.
(11) P. 57, Rasarnava, a similar treatise, by Simbamahipati. The nominal author is said to have been a Tanjore prince of the last century. The work does not seem to have been ever finished, and it is certainly not a matter for regret that such is the case." Here, again, Dr. Burnell is unfortunately wrong. The name Simhamahipati or Singabhüpåla, as he is otherwise called, does not occur in the lists of the Nayakas or the Maratha Rajas of Tanjore. The name Singabhủpala and his work Rasárnava are often quoted already by Kumârasvâmin. son of Mallinâtha, in his Ratnápaña, a commentary on the Pratáparudrayasőbhúshana.
(12) P. 162, Sarabhardjavilása, "a history of Sarabhôjiraja of Tanjore (1796-1833) by Jagannatha " for "a history of Sarabhôji I. of Tanjore, composed in A. D. 1722 by Jagannatha."
