A few days back I noted this link about Nṛsiṃha caturdaśi vrata by jyotishi Shyamasundara Dāsa.
I’m just going to note a few things here from my edition of Hari-Bhakti-Vilāsa
atha niyamamantraḥ
श्रीनृसिंह महाभीम दयां कुरु ममोपरि|
अद्याहं तो विधास्यामि व्रतं निर्विघ्नता नय||
Translation: O Lord Nṛsimhadeva! O greatly powerful one, please display compassion toward me. To day, I will observe this vow of Yours and so kindly help me to complete it without any impediment.
śrīnṛsiṃha mahābhīma dayāṃ kuru mamopari|
adyāhaṃ to vidhāsyāmi vrataṃ nirvighnatā naya|| iti ||
The pūjā prescribed is a shodashopachara(16 upācāra) puja. Before Nṛsiṃha is worshipped,Prahlāda must be worshipped as well.

[Note:My main niggling problem with that page is the translation of deva=demigod and dānava=atheist. Dānavas are dānu’s sons…this is known from śruti firstly.]
Gopala Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī here cites from mainly the Bṛhannārasiṃhapurāṇa and an unspecified āgama(simply saying ‘āgame’…).
