Or, having obtained [the poetry of Sri] Madhava [Deshpande], don't keep on running [for more] after that....

Or, it is just a continuation of the old tradition of including the poet's name either in a bandhakaavya or in plain sight - like the Vaaggeyakaaras. 

Nice triple play (abhanga slesha, followed by sabhanga slesha) on the word Madhava, Sir. 🙏

Before somebody cites माङि लुङ्, some read the avyaya मा in the caadigaNa, it may be noted.

Reading the beautiful Sanskrit poems of Shankar Rajaraman, I am inspired to write a verse of my own:

माधवं प्राप्य दुर्बुद्धे मा धाव तदनन्तरम् ।

कल्पवृक्षं समासाद्य किमेरण्डे प्रयोजनम् ।।

"O Dullard, having attained Mādhava [Krishna, Lord], don't keep on running [mā dhāva] after that. Having found the wish-fulfilling tree, what is the purpose in going after the caster-oil shrub?
