A poem, in 10 adhydayas, on the efficacy of vows performed on the Hkadasi festival, on the 11th day of each half-moon. By Vipra Divakara, The work is written in the form of a dialogue between Krishna and Yudhishthira, and is doubt- less taken from a Sanskrit Purana. It does not appear to have been published. The author styles himself Vipra (sometimes Brahmana) Divakara in the concluding lines of each chapter. He has given no further account of himself. There is every reason to suppose that he is the “ Dibakara Kara” (or Vipra Divakara), author of the Jagannatha-charitamrita noticed by M. M. Chakravarti, who flourished about 200 years ago. In Hunter’s list of Oriya authors he is called “ Dibakar Misra.’* The Jagannatha- charitamrita was printed at Cuttack, 1913. Begins. QAQ PAIlelo | SOQ CHIGM OERIOS | Ql ad QA Gn CAQ | OI!
