BHĀNUDATTA 305

स्थायिभावs (eight kinds), that due to व्यमिचारिभावs (20 kinds), that due to the rasas (eight kinds) and illustration of some of them; how some rasas spring from others and opposition among them. The रसमजरी is a somewhat smaller treatise than the रसतर० and their topics are somewhat different. The रसमञ्जरी deals with नायिकाs and their varieties (about two-thirds of the work are taken up by this subject), the सखी of the नायिका, दूती, नायकs (in शृङ्गार) and their varieties, the friends of the नायक (viz. पीठमद, विट, चेट, विदूषक), the cight सात्विकगुराS (स्तम्भ &C.), two varieties of शङ्ार and ten stages of विप्रलम्भ. In both works all the examples except in a few cases where the author indica- tes to the contrary are the author's own as he says 'अवगाहस्व वाग्देवि दिव्या रसतर्राङ्णीम् । अस्मत्पद्यन पद्मेन रचय श्रतिभूषयम् ।।' (रसत० 8. 29) and पधेन स्वीकृतेन तेन कविना श्रीभानुना योजिता (last verse of रसमन्जरी). In the रसत०, भरत is very frequently quoted and also author's father (pp. 16, 81, 141, 168). In both he quotes from the अमरुशतक the पाद 'ताम्बूलाहरणच्छलेन० of verse 18 in रसत० V. p. 109 and verse 35 प्रस्थानं वलयैः कृतं in रसमञ्जरी p. 183 (which is noted as प्राचीनग्रन्थलेखन). For the रसमञजरी the edition in the Benares S. Series is used. In both works the author refers to पूर्वाचार्य (रसत० 175), प्राचीनलिखित (रसम० p. 43), पूर्वअ्रन्थकारसंमति (रसत० p.168), प्राचीनसंमति (रसत० pp. 170, 182). In the रसत० hementions the रसरत्नदीपिका (p.20) and शृङ्गारतिलक (p. 68). The रसमब्जरी was composed before रसत० (p.130). He quotes in the रसत० 177) as प्राचीनग्रन्थ the verse 'अनौचित्यादृते नान्यद्रसभकस्य कारणम्। प्रसिद्धौचित्यवद्रस्तु रसहर्षाय जायते' ॥l which is very similar to a verse in ्वo (p. 180) and व्यक्तिविवेक (p.31). In the रसमन्जरी he tells us that his father was गरोश्वर and his country was विदेह watered by the Ganges (तातो यस्य गयेशवरो कविकुलालक्कार चूडामणिदेशो यस्य विदेहभ्: सुरसरित्कल्लोलकिमीरिता, last verse). Some mss. read विदर्भभू:, which does not agree with the word सुर ... रिता that follows. In Burnell's Tanjore Cat. भानुदर is styled मैथिल. In Eggeling's Cat. of India Office mss. vol. III. No. 1211 p. 353 a ms. of the Rasamanjari dated संवद् 1780 ascribes it to मैथिलश्रीगयनाथस न्मिश्र० The two published commentaries on the रसमम्जरो are the व्यक्यार्थकौमुदी of अनन्तपरिडत, son of त्र्यम्बक, composed in 1635 A. D. at पुएयस्तम्भ (modern Puntambem) on the गोदावरी, and प्रकाश by नागेशभट्ट son of शिवभट्ट in the first half of the 18th century. A lyrical poem called गीतगौरीश or गीतगौरीपति is ascribed
