Hi Eisel,
This Kaarikaa is listed as the 14th of the 14 minor texts in the CPD
bibliography (Epilegomena, 1948). Here's the complete entry:
"5.4.14 Kaarikaa (:Dhammasenaapati, Pi.t-sm 393, PLB p.15-16, Saas
75,22, Gv 73,21), Be as 5.4.1, Ce, with editor's sannaya, Vaelito.ta,
1897 (~Naa.natilaka Naayaka-Thera)."
As noted, details for the Burmese edition are found at 5.4.1
(Saddatthabhedacintaa) as follows:
"... Be together with 5.4.2-5.4.14 as "Saddaa 'nay 14" Rangoon 1281
B.E., cf. "Saddaa 'nay nisya", Rangoon 1284 B.E., ..."
Dhammasenaapati also wrote a .tiikaa on the Kaarikaa called the
Kaarikaa-.tiikaa.
