Bhatti (Seventh Century?)

Bhatti (bhat-tē or bė-hat’tē). An Indian epic poet of the sixth or the seventh century. His poem named after him ‘Bhattikâvyam’ is in 22 cantos. Its theme is the deeds of Râma; but the author designed the work to be also an exemplification of the rules of grammatical and rhetorical composition. It was published with a twofold commentary at Calcutta (1828).
