∗ “Against Shivaji the Queen this year sent Abdullah Khan with an army of 10,000 horse and foot, and because she knew with that strength he was not able to resist Shivaji, she counselled him to pretend friendship with his enemy, which he did. And the other [i.e., Shivaji], whether through intelligence or suspicion it is not known, dissembled his love toward him &c.” (Revington at Rajapur to Company, 10 Dec. 1659, F. R. Rajapur.)
