See also, vv. 191-2, p. 141. The date of Vēmana is a debatable point. C. P. Brown places him "about the beginning of the seventeenth century of our era". \*Verses of Vēmana\*, Preface, p. 111 (1829). Chenchiah and Bhujanga Rao remark: "It is probable that he lived in the beginning of the fifteenth century." \*A History of Telugu Literature\*, p. 99. (Heritage of India Series). Vēmana's description may be compared with that given by Lakshmipati Dhūrjaṭi, \*Hamsa-vimśati Kathegalu\*, p. 18 (Trans. into Kanarese by Krishnayya, Bangalore, 1871). - [Previous: v2.c19.s2.t2.70](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.saletore-1934.v2.c19.s2.t2.70) - [Next: v2.c19.s3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.saletore-1934.v2.c19.s3.1) - [Up: v2.c19.s2.t2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.saletore-1934.v2.c19.s2.t2) ## Linked texts (1) - [Haṃsaviṃśati](https://indike.org/pramana/in.vernacular.telugu.uttaraprabandha.hamsavimsati) — Telugu --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.saletore-1934.v2.c19.s2.t2.71](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.saletore-1934.v2.c19.s2.t2.71) · Pramāṇa
