 Systems of Sanskrit Grammar § 84 - ] A few more names are given by Aufrecht, but they need not detain us here. Of modern commentaries on the Mugdhabodha there is no end. Most of these are produced in Bengal. 108 85. Supplements and accessory treatises of the Mugdhabodha.-- As the aim of the Mugdhabodha was brevity, it was inevi- table that it should have omitted several obscure rules. Accordingly we find three attempts made one after another to supply the defects: by Nandakiśorabhatta, by Käsiśvara, and by Rāmatarkavāgisa.

Nothing is known of Kramadiśvara's parentage and nativity. His work is called Sankshipta- sära, indicating by it that it was an epitome or an abridg- ment of some larger grammar; and as it could be the
