In the verse 4, the author says that in the year 1422 of Vikrama era. in the beginning of the month of Caitra, he composed this corpus (ndhi) of name, (1e this Pirasinimamila) at the desire of king Haribhramha in The city of Madurga, which was the residence of both Śri (Prosperity) and Vidyt (Learning)
Thus iccording to our author Idar was a seni of learoing and a progperous cits in VS 1422 (= AD 1365) when this work was composed The authors claim does not appear to be wholly unwarranted, since he himself had composed several works
