BHYRAVA KAVI.

This poet was contemporary with the foreging, and was like him a great grammarian of the Telugu dialect: he wrote a work on prosody, entitled Kavi Gajan Kusa Chandasu, which by degrees came in good repute; Bhyrava Kavi did not seek any public employment, but spent his time in retirement, and died much respected for his excellent private character.
