Gopāladāsa was a son of Balabhadra. He also wrote a Vaidyavilāsa and a commentary, called Śabdāmṛta, on the Kumārasambhava (NCC VI, 142). This commentary is referred to in Rāmacandra's Prakriyākaumudī, a grammatical work that dates from the fourteenth or fifteenth century (see CC I, 347 and 512, II, 77 and 210, III, 74; NCC XII, 220–223); this establishes that Gopāladāsa is earlier than this Rāmacandra. 193 See on this text, known from quotations in the Rājamārtaṇḍa only: Gaṇanātha Sena (1924): 40; R.C.
