v3.c43.s24.13

*Date* As Kālidāsa probably borrowed a formula from Soḍhala, he is later than about 1200, and his reference to the disease called asthisrāva, also mentioned in the Ārogyacintāmaṇi, may indicate that he belongs to the same period as Dāmodara. A terminus ad quem cannot be determined, but his therapeutic procedures and materia may well confirm that he belonged to the fourteenth century. 720
