This sovereign is also called ‘Triple Behrâm,’ and some historians relate that he was Governor of Seistân during the lifetime of his father; the majority of them, however, do not describe the reign of the Triple Behrâm. Ebn Athir, however, and Hafez Abru state that on the day when Behrâm Bin Behrâm Bin Behrâm ascended the throne, he said: ‘We have a right to the throne, because we are of the royal race, and all our efforts will be devoted to the cause of making our people happy.’ At these words he was interrupted by the applause of the people and the army, whereon he continued: ‘I put my trust in God, by whose favour all affairs are regulated. If we are spared we shall live in such a manner with you that everyone who hears about us will praise us; but in case I should come to a premature end, I hope the Lord will not forsake you.’ Hâfez Abru likewise states that his reign is by some considered to have lasted nine years, but in the Shâhnâmah it is set down at four years only.
