*P. 257.* One of Kavicandra’s known dates is 1661 A. D., because the *Cikitsā-ratnāvalī* is so dated, and it describes itself expressly as the work of Kavicandra of Datta-kula, Dīrghāṅka-nagara, son of Kavikarṇapūra and grandson of Vidyāvīśārada, and a vaidya of Sudhīra on the banks of the Ganges (the Hoogly ?). It also mentions the names of his two sons as given here.
