It is a rare ancient lexicon of synonymous Sanskrit verbs written by Bhattamalla in metric style with the commentary entitled Purnima of V. R. Manoj. The uses of synonymous verbs have been elaborated by quoting other lexicons and drawing examples from celebrated literary works. It provides derivative history of verbs wherever there is complexity. Reference to every quote is provided in the text itself for ease of access and understanding. Verses are continuously numbered for ease of access. Meanings are given in the locative case and synonymous verbs are in the subjective case, just as in the text and the commentary is complete with extensive indices. It is an invaluable reference manual for every Sanskrit learner.
