The jatisvaram in question is in the book "Tha Tanjore Quartette" by K.P.Kittappa & K.P.Sivanandam.There is a famous jathiswaram in ragamalikai/m.chapu known to dancers. It is a composition of the Thanjavur quartette... or so I thought, until I heard this:

Can we have examples of his compositions in tamizh and marAThi?
In compilations of ST's songs, are included songs composed by scholars he patronised; and some of these may have been in TamiL and marAThi..
1. TKGovinda rao's book gives a TamiL varNaM - sAmi unnaiyE nAn migacvum nambinEnE.. couldn't find any marAthi..

Re: Swathi Thirunal
MuhanaprasAntyaprAsa vyavastha is a sanskrta work on prosody attributed to Swati Tirunal.
It deals with the alankaras of muhana, prasa and antyaprasa in musical compositions in sanskrta.The examples that are cited in this work are from the compositions of mArgadarshi seShayyangar (introduced in the first paragraph as 'Sesha ramanuja kavi). And this work also provides us a source to validate and identify some of seShayyangar's compositions.
Thanks to Dr.P.P.Narayanaswami for making this work available. (A translation effort is underway and will be made available soon)

Re: Swathi Thirunal
Great writeup by PRince Rama Verma on Swati Tirunal , very articulate and building up a strong case for the terrific navarathri festival. Having said I have to respectfully disagree with Rama Vema when he says "So it would make sense to sing all the lines once and repeat the whole stanza rather than sing one line and repeat it again for second sangathi , which would make no sense at all.". Actually better solution is to DO BOTH and Not Either. Writeup in THe Hindu dated Oct 04,2019 in The Hindu. This is duplicate post of rama verma thread , I wanted this to also stay in ST thread.

Just checking: is the authorship of these two compositions accepted as this composers' own?
1. pālaya sadā in naḷinakānti
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cDVpUeIfreo
2.rāmacandra raghunandana in nīlāmbari
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bqh5Tw99_Cw
I understand two attributed to him, nityamaśrayē in rītigauḷa and japata japata in sindhubhairavi are credited to his maternal uncle, Iratyimman Thanpi.

Re: Swathi Thirunal (songs unheard are sweeter by far ??!)
Songs unheard are sweeter by far ?? to quote an english poet..
I feel that Carnatic performers over the years have NOT done justice to the majesty of Maharaja’s compositions.
The episode relating to "BhAvayAmi RaghurAmam" in sAveri needing to be heard in all its glory (and then seemingly becoming a rAgamalikA after that is already perhaps three-quarters of a century old)...setting aside all other sensitivities that may arise from my quoting this particular example, I want to make following observation....
The Maharaja and Tyagaraja (and I believe unlike Dikshitar or Syama Sastri) are the best examples of
uninhibited tone-poets unleashing a musical torrent of chaste words and ideas in multiple stanzas /charanams.
I feel that these tone-poets' vision at the point of creation is a direct channel to the source of nAda…the totality of this feeling is captured in the kritis they have brought forth…
In some ways the pancharatna aradhana is a nod to Tyagarajas massive output but ignores his other great and variegated kritis !
See Tyagarajas many-splendored arabhis or todis , just the tip of this iceberg, that have wilted into oblivion...
...ditto for Maharaja ...
Has anyone ever heard the other two charanams in the timeless “sArasAkSa paripAlayamAm”, other than the one that starts with “bhima sevya tava” ??
Has anyone ever heard the charanams beginning with “sakala kalAlaya shAradA himakara sadrsha”
Or “jyOtirmaya navahArAyita sajjyOti shatantra vibhUSitE” in the great Devi Navaratri SankarAbharanam Devi Jagatjanani..i doubt it….it is pretty much either the charanams starting with “VinApustaka dhArinI..” or occasionally “arunatarA dhara..”
Fortunately the GopAlaka PAhimAm revagupti (Maharaja would be immortal if this was his only kriti ! ) was so irresistible in the variety of its stanzas that in 200 plus years most self-respecting vidwans/vidushis have preserved all of them !!
here is MSS caressing this with her sweet voice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ln0cewhgV70
How wonderfully Maharaja has a sprightly tillana right after waking up, no languid stretching in bed for him and revagupti unlike bhupalam forgets any pathos of the night that has passed !!
Same cannot be said for pAhi gopanandana bhushAvali (Once again, Maharaja would be immortal if this was his only kriti ! ) ..I could go on and on and on with examples…
Maybe the rise of instruments (and instrumentalists) is contributing to this dilution ?
We should properly pay homage to the composers inspiration as true rasikas and even (I believe) as performers. Even apart from the additional ideas captured in the words, the very usage of different words brings additional dimension to the music, in terms of inflections, gamakams, gait etc.
Perhaps the yearly festival to Maharaja should actively insist on performers/invitees exercising their musical training on these unheard charanams..?

Re: Swathi Thirunal
a follow-up to my previous post
[1] sArAsAksha paripAlayamAm- less heard charanam
quite by chance I found a fine effort which at minute marker 23 does the rarer charanam
"bhOgibhOga kalitAtma nivAsa vibhO .." of Maharajas masterpiece (one of them).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfvJzEzDhTk
ps.. The entire concert itself is very good quality, the humility and youth refreshing, as is the lack of narcissism
[2] along these lines ...ALL 3 stanzas are rendered of evergreen (and extensive) Dorakuna properly done in Bilahari
and not Kalyani
..the singer obviously an expert..

The few-other Devi kritis of the Maharaja
there are only a handful of other kritis (other than magnum opus Devi Navaratri set)
by Maharaja to the Devi...(mostly deshya ragas seen in the raga choice for the half-a-dozen or so kiritis)
kAnadA - mAmava sadA janani
Huseni - pAhimam brihannAyikE
Hamsanandi - pAhi jagat janani pAhimAm
Vachaspati - pAhi jagat janani santatam
KApi - vihara mAnasA rAmE
NAtakuranji - mAmava sadA varadE
maybe also
sAtura kAmini which I have heard very nicely done in yamunA kalyani
(although it is sometimes sung in Kalyani)
there are only a handful of other kritis (other than magnum opus Devi Navaratri set)
by Maharaja to the Devi...(mostly deshya ragas seen in the raga choice for the half-a-dozen or so kiritis)
kAnadA - mAmava sadA janani
Huseni - pAhimam brihannAyikE
Hamsanandi - pAhi jagat janani pAhimAm
Vachaspati - pAhi jagat janani santatam
KApi - vihara mAnasA rAmE
NAtakuranji - mAmava sadA varadE

Re: Swathi Thirunal
some examples of Shiva kritis of Maharaja
There are few (all exceptional) kritis , maybe in all 10-12 only, by Maharaja to the Shiva deity....
the dancing shiva in Nrityati Nrityati in sankarabharana

and in kedAram paramAnanda natana
(which seems to have been influenced by the Dikshitar kedAram !)

the waking shiva in pArvati nAyaka - bauli ! (fine example by SS !!)
