But we return to a secure chronology and to the renewed influence to *tājika* science with the Praśnatantra²³ written by that Nīlakaṇṭha who composed the Tājikanīlakaṇṭhī in 1587. In the course of this treatise he quotes many verses from earlier works, making it a sort of *nibandha*; his favorite authorities besides the Tājikas, are Pṛthuyaśas and Padmaprabha Sūri.
