¹ e.g. the *Gīta-gaṅgādhara* by Kalyāṇa, the *Gīta-girīśa* by Rāma, the *Gīta-digambara* by Vaṃśamaṇi (*HPS* i 18) the *Gīta-rāghava* by Prabhākara, son of Bhūdhara, dated *saṃvat* 1674 (Bhandarkar *Rep.* 1882-83 p. 9). A *Gīta-rāghava* by Hariśaṃkara is mentioned in *HPS* ii no. 53. See also *Rāma-gīta-govinda* (*IOC* vii p. 1480) characterised by Eggeling as "a weak imitation of Jayadeva's *Gīta-govinda*" but attributed to Jayadeva. Eggeling quotes from Garcin de Tassy about such passing off of imitations of *Gīta-govinda* for that of Jayadeva. Cf Pischel, *Die Hofdichter des Lakṣmaṇasena* p. 23.
