The Rasikajivana of Gadadhara, an alamkāra work in 10
books (prabandhas), of the 17th century, cites stanzas I and
2, but in what connection I have been unable to determine, since
no complete copy of the text of that work has been published,
so far, at least, as I have been able to learn.¹
 
Stanzas I and 2 of the Süryaśataka are also cited in Särnga-
dhara's anthology, the Paddhati (1363 A.D.).²
 
The Suryaśataka is also said to be quoted in the Ţikasarvasva,
Sarvananda's commentary on the Namalinganuśasana of Amara-
simha, which is dated by M. S. Sastri as 1417-1431 A.D.³
 
The Kavindravacanasamuccaya (stanza 53), an anthology of
unknown authorship, consisting of 525 stanzas, and dated earlier
than 1200 A.D., cites Süryaśataka, stanza 34, in its chapter
entitled Suryavrajyā.* And Thomas authorizes the statement
that stanzas 19, 42 and 71 of the Süryaśataka are cited by
Ujjvaladatta, on Uṇādisutra (Aufrecht's edition, p. 19), 4, 51,
4. 233, and 4. 213 respectively."
 
Among the modern anthologies, it should be noted that the
Subhāṣitaratnabhāṇḍāgāra quotes stanzas 1, 2 and 6 of the Sürya-
Notes on Alankara Literature, in JRAS, new series, vol. 29 (1897), p. 300;
cf. T. Zachariae, Die indischen Wörterbücher (in Bühler's Grundriss der
Indo-Arischen Philologie), p. 21, Strassburg, 1897.
 
1 The Rasikajivana exists in several manuscripts, which ascribe it to
Gadādhara; cf. Aufrecht, Catalogus Catalogorum, vol. 1, p. 497, and vol.
2, p. 116; Bühler, Two Lists of Skt. MSS, in ZDMG, vol. 42 (1888), p. 554.
The first 46 stanzas of the first book of the Rasikajīvana have been edited,
from manuscript no. 217 of the collection in the Bibliothèque Nationale
in Paris, by P. Regnaud, and published by him, under the title Stances
Sanskrites Inédites, in Annuaire de la Faculté des Lettres de Lyon, fasci-
cule 2, p. 201-223, Paris, 1884. Stanza I of the Süryaśataka appears as
stanza 32 of the first book of the Rasikajivana, and stanza 2 as stanza 31
of the same book. Regnaud, in the introduction, states that the Rasika-
jivana is an anthology and consists of 11 prabandhas. Aufrecht (loc. cit.)
states that Gadadhara's work is an alamkāra consisting of 10 prabandhas.
