has been translated into Kannada separately by Asthana Vidv盲n
Sri H. Gangadhara艣膩stri. This, again, has been published in
Sri Jayacamarajendra Grantharatnam膩l膩 as series No. 2. It has
been printed in Sri Sharada Press, Mysore, in 1950.
THE NARADIYA-PUR膧峁咥.
A few m膩h膩tmyas from this Pur膩峁嘺 have been rendered into
Kannada by the well-known Kannada writers. Cikkupadhy膩ya
rendered the Sanskrit Yadugirim膩h膩tmya forming part of the
N膩rad墨ya-pur膩峁嘺 into Kannada prose at the instance of
Cikkadevaraja, King of Mysore. It is complete in 12 Adhy膩yas
[vide. MD (K.) Nos. 260 and 261]. Yadugiri, now known as
Melukote is in the Mysore District. The same m盲h盲tmya has
been written in Sangatya metre by Cikkupadhyaya. It contains
12 sandhis and 1219 verses [vide MD (K.) No. 263 and also
K. K. C. vol. II P. 482]. Another rendering of this mahatmya
is by Timmakavi who wrote this at the instance of Cikkadevr膩ja,
King of Mysore (1672-1704 A. D.). It is in prose-verse form.
It is complete in 12 A艣v膩sas [vide MD (K.) No. 266]. The
Kar峁嚹乼akakavi Carite states that this work contains 16 A艣v膩sas
and that the first four A艣v膩sas deal with the description of the
genealogy of Cikkadevar膩ja etc., after which the story proper
Commences14. Besides, Mys. D. No. 1375 which is the same
work contains 16 A艣v膩sas (see also Mys. D. Nos. 1376 to 78).
So it appears that the scribe who wrote MD (K.) No. 266 would
have omitted to copy the first four A艣v膩sas. Another ms. of
this work [MD (K.) No. 267] by an unknown author contains
Adhy膩yas 1-11 complete and the 12th incomplete. It consists of
Sanskrit stanzas with Kannada commentary. Yadavagirim盲h盲-
tmya of Venkataryasisya of about 1700 A. D., is a poem in
Bh膩min墨峁�atpadi metre. The author of K. K. C. says that an
incomplete ms. of this work got by him contained only 10
Sandhis 15. But of the two Mss. available in the
Oriental

Research Institutes, Mysore, one contains 13 Sandhis while the
other is incomplete (vide. Mys. D. Nos. 1372, 1373).

The Naradiya-Purana has been translated into Kannada
prose by 艢r墨 V膩sudev膩c膩rya of Doddaballapur. Published by
艢r墨 Jayac膩marajendra Grantharatnam膩l膩 in 10 parts as series No.
39, it has been printed in Chamundesvari Electric Press, Mysore,

author gives the gist.
THE BHAVISYOTTARA-PURANA.
Portions of this Pur膩峁嘺 dealing with the mahatmyas have
been rendered into Kannada. The Kannada version of Kamal膩ca-
lam膩h膩tyma is by Cikkupadhyaya. It is the mahatmya of Hima-
vadgop膩lasv膩mi hill or Kamalacala found in the T墨rthakanda of
the Bhavi峁�yottara-pura峁嘺 (Mys. D. Nos. 225 and 226). It is in
prose-verse form It contains 16 Asv膩sas, 2591 K盲ndas, 1161
Vrttas and 276 Vacanas (K, K. C. vol. II. P, 471). Prose-version

also called "Gop膩labhup盲loktivil膩sa". It contains 9 Adhy膩yas.
The syamantakop盲khy膩na forming part of the Bhavi峁�yottara-
Pur膩峁嘺 has been rendered into Kannada by the famous Kalale
Na帽jar膩ja [MD (K.) No. 251]. Another work of the same author
is Haradatt膩c膩ryam膩h膩tmya, a translation into Kannada of the
Sanskrit Haradatt膩c膩ryacaritra of Bhavi峁�yottara-Pur膩峁嘺.16

Kannada by Venkataramasastri of Devandahalli, a protege of
Mummadik峁涐梗峁嘺r膩ja, a King of Mysore."
