79. On the accession of Vijayaraghava to the throne in the year Srimukha, Sak: 1555 (1633 A.D.) he donated the sixteen great gifts.

81-86. Dedicatory verses or Shashủyantas.

87. Beginning of the story.

All the information contained herein regarding the ancestry and achievements are known from other sources. There are however two important things to be noted—(1) Vijayaraghavanayaka had an elder brother Atchuta Ramabhadra : 2 and that the coronation of the former took place in 1633 A. D. History is silent about Ramabhadra in connection with Atchutaramabhadra's accession.

The date of the work is therefore 1633 A.D, the first year of Vijayaraghava's accession and nothing is known about Kalakavi afterwards. No other work of the poet has come down to us and even this Rajagopala vilasamu was not known so widely as the works in lays of Righunatha.

The geneology given in this work is as under:

Kishna.

Timma. (Wife Bayyamba)

Chevva. (also known as China Chevva married Murtimamba)

Atchuta. (wife Murtimamba.)

Raghunatha. (wife Kalavati)

Anchuta Ramabhadra.

Vijayaraghava Nayaka.
