Description
This manuscript titled Sabhātaraṅgapustaka spans folios 1b to 17b and corresponds to folios 53a2 to 67b6 of manuscript no. 423, a larger work titled Sabhātaraṅgiṇī. The Sabhātaraṅgiṇī, also known as Sabhātaraṅga, is a Sanskrit literary work attributed to Jagannāthamiśra, a member of the Rāḍhī family and descendant of Lakṣmaṇamiśra and Vedamiśra. It is dated to around 1600 CE, though a manuscript colophon suggests a compilation date of 1516 CE. The text is structured into sections called taraṅgas (waves) and comprises approximately 350 verses. It explores themes such as the praise of virtue, condemnation of wickedness, descriptions of natural elements like the bhramara (bee), cātaka (rainbird), and the moon, as well as critiques of social issues like poverty and begging.
