*Nāṭya-locana* (Aufrecht i 284b, iii 61a).

v1.c59.2

This work (without the author's name) is extensively cited, e.g. by Rāghavabhaṭṭa on *Śakuntalā* ed. N. S. P. 1886, p. 7, by Vāsudeva on *Karpūra-mañjarī*, by Raṅganātha on *Vikramórvaśī* i 1; by Dinakara and Cāritravardhana on *Raghu*. As Dinakara's date is 1385 A.D.¹, this work cannot be placed later than the middle or third quarter of the 14th century. A commentary, called *Locana-vyākhyāñjana*, by the author himself is mentioned in Oppert 2695.
