559 Śāśvata’s Anekārthasamuccaya (see C. Vogel, IL 318–319). 560 Yādavaprakāśa’s Vaijayantī (see C. Vogel, IL 323–324). 561 CC II, 224; III, 117; NCC VII, 20: Varṇanighaṇṭu, by Cāmuṇḍa. Compare C. Vogel, IL 372 (on Varpakoṣas). 562 CC I, 586: a lexicon, perhaps the Viśvaprakāśa. Compare C. Vogel (IL 348–350) on Śrīdharasena’s Viśvalocana or Muktāvalī. 563 See CC I, 616 on this work of Vopadeva. 564 Variants of this name are Keyadeva (CC I, 125 and 319, II, 24; NCC V, 43; Cat. Berlin Nr. 1748; Cat. BHU Nrs. 87 and 88; Cat. IO Nr. 2748; Cat. Tanjore Nr. 11074; CBORI XVI, 1, Nr. 126; Śivadatta Miśra’s auto-commentary on the Śivakoṣa; STMI 526 and 656), Kayadeva (CBORI XVI, 1, Nrs. 126–127), Kayyadeva (Check-list Nrs. 512 and 558), Kaiyyadeva (C.G. Kashikar, 1977: 165), Kaiideva (Cat. IO Nr. 2748), and Kaideva (Bodleian d.713(2); see D. Wujastyk, 1990: 103). 565 NCC V, 42–43; X, 47. The Nāmaratnākara, which has not been preserved, was probably a synonymic lexicon. It was written before the Pathyāpathyavibodhaka, which appears to be an expanded version of it, adding the qualities and actions to the names of the medicinal substances. See the introductory verses of the Kaiyadevanighaṇṭu. Bāpālāl Vaidya (1982: 620–621) claimed, erroneously, that Nāmaratnākara was another name of Kaiyadeva, and Nāmasāgara the name of his earlier lexicon. 566 The title of the work is Pathyāpathyavibodhaka (see the introductory verses).
