LETTER XC.

Grandson Azim, though the produce of the ‘toddy’* of Mahál* is meant for acquiring wealth, it cannot be understood which dishonest ‘Kázi’ gave you a decision (in favour of selling and drinking ‘toddy’). You should regard such counsellors, who are the cause of ruin to families, as the enemies of your person and property and as the evil wishers of your present and future lives. You should thank the Holy and High God for His bounty that He has bestowed upon you fertile and productive districts and everything cheap and abundant. You should consider the protection of the subjects as the source of happiness in this world and in the next world.
