At a certain outpost on the road, the Mughal officer suspected that Shambhuji was not of their family or caste; but his Brahman protectors dined with him to prove their kinship, and the danger was passed. (T. S. 25a; Dil. 61 gives a variant.) Shiva royally rewarded the faithful three—Krishnaji, Kashi Rao and Visaji,—gave them the title of \*Vishwas Rao\* (Lords Fidelity) and a lakh of gold pieces, and settled on them an annual revenue of 10,000 \*hun\*. The devoted companions of his own escape were similarly rewarded. (Sabh. 57.)
