THE SÜRYASATAKA OF MAYŪRA
The third is a Sinhalese translation, found, with text and Sin-
halese commentary, in a manuscript of the Süryaśataka. The
manuscript is now in the Bodleian Library, and is recorded,
together with mention of the translation, by Winternitz and
Keith, in their Catalogue of the Skt. MSS in the Bodleian
Library, vol. 2, p. 178, no. 1257, Oxford, 1905.
OTHER SŪRYASATAKAS
Besides Mayūra's poem, we have record of five other composi-
tions bearing the name of Süryaśataka. Three of these are
listed in Aufrecht's Catalogus Catalogorum (vol. 1, p. 732, and
vol. 2, p. 235), one in Taylor's Catalogue Raisonné, and one in
Barnett's Catalogue of Telugu Books in the Library of the
British Museum. These five are as follows.
A Suryaśataka, or hymn to Sürya, composed by Gopālaśarman,
surnamed Upasani, who describes himself in the edition of his
work as 'First Master of Sanskrit at the Jay Narain College at
Benares.' The edition referred to was published at Calcutta in
1871; cf. Ernst Haas, Cat. of Skt. and Pali Books in the British
Museum, p. 39, London, 1876; cf. Catalogue of the Library of the
India Office, vol. 2, part 1, p. 214, London, 1897. A manuscript
of this Suryaśataka is recorded by Gustav Oppert, Lists of Skt.
MSS in Private Libraries of Southern India, vol. 2, p. 489, no.
8421, Madras, 1885.
A Süryaśataka, or hymn to Sürya, composed by Śrīśvara
Vidyalamkāra. A manuscript is recorded by Rajendralāla Mitra,
Notices of Skt. MSS, vol. 7, p. 113, no. 2340, Calcutta, 1884.
According to Aufrecht (Cat. Cat., vol. I, p. 675), Śrīśvara was
still alive in 1884.
A Suryaśataka by Raghavendra Sarasvatī, composed in 1593
(cf. Aufrecht, Cat. Cat., vol. 2, p. 220, s. v. Rāghavendra), a
manuscript of which is recorded by Peterson in his Catalogue of
the Skt. MSS in the Library of His Highness the Maharaja of
Ulwar, no. 2438, and Extracts, no. 676, Bombay, 1892.
