c20.s8.t1.11
The Shivapur deshpandes have preserved two *Shakavalis*, one in their *Yadi* (very short) and the other in their *Bahi*. I have secured a transcript of the very large Shivapur Deshpande *Shakavali* preserved in the library of the Bombay Royal Asiatic Society (Forbes collection.) The above three *Shakavalis* as well as three others are printed in the *Shiva-Charitra Pradip* (a very useful book) which also gives the *Jedhe Karina* (an amplification of the *Shakavali* from the purely family point of view). An uncorrected English translation of the Jedhe Shakavali and Karina is given in the *Shivaji Souvenir*.
