Saptakanda Ramayana

The first (Adikanda) and last (Uttarakanda) cantos of Madhava Kandali's work were lost, and were later inserted by Madhavdeva and Sankardeva respectively in the 16th century.

ramayana supa yara, shri mahamanike ye, baraha rajar anurudhe.

mahamanikyoro bolo kavyarasa kicho dilon dugdhak mathilo yena ghrite pandit lokar yebe asantosa upajaya hat yore bolon shudha bak pustak bichari yebe taite katha napawaha tebe sabe nindiba amak.

The original work was based on a vision that the Boraha king was reported to have experienced, of a naked man riding an upturned bowl full of milk.

Sankardeva writes of Kandali: purvakavi apramadi madhav kandali adi pade virachila rama katha hastira dekhiya lada sasa yena phure marga mora bhaila tenhaya avastha.
