THE SŪRYAŚATAKA OF MAYŪRA
SANSKRIT WORKS THAT QUOTE THE
SŪRYAŚATAKA
As indicated in the notes to the various stanzas, I have dis-
covered quotations from the Süryaśataka in the following San-
skrit works which belong, for the most part, to the alamkāra
literature.
The Dhvanyaloka of Anandavardhana (855-884 A.D.)¹ cites
stanza 9 as exhibiting a type of śleșa,³ and stanza 23 as an illus-
tration of the rhetorical figure called vyatireka.³
98
The Kavikanthabharaṇa of Kṣemendra (1025-1075 A.D.)*
cites stanza 18 as an example of a bit of poetry that contains
faults as well as excellences.5
The Kavyaprakāśa of Mammaṭa and Allața (1050-1100 A.D.)*
quotes stanza 6, seemingly as an illustration of harshness in
sound, where harshness is neither a fault nor an excellence,
and stanza 71 as an example of a stanza wherein facts are dis-
torted in order to effect a desired alliteration.8
The Ganaratnamahodadhi (2. 149) of Vardhamāna (1140
A.D.) quotes the first pada of stanza 79 to illustrate the use of
the dyu stem (for div), signifying 'sky.'
