Excerpt from The Nitiśataka and Vairagyaśataka: With Extracts From Two Sanskrit Commentaries But leaving aside for the present such traditional scraps of information, some of which will have to be discussed in a more suitable place in the sequel, let us first turn to the question which lies on the very threshold of all inquiry concerning this matter Who is the real author of these Satakas? In 1801, speaking of Bhartrihari, Colebrooke wrote as follows A beautiful poem has been composed in his 'name, containing moral reflections which the poet supposes him to make on the discovery of his wife's infidelity. It consists of either three or four Satakas or centuries of couplets I In this passage, however, we cannot but think that the learned writer has been thrown out of his usual accuracy. In the first place, it is only the second Stanza of the Nitieataka which lends any support to the position accepted by him in the first sentence above quoted. But there is absolutely nothing to shew that any other portion of that Sataka, or any portion whatever of the other Satakas, was suggested by the same circumstance as that Stanza.
