LETTER CLXXX.

According to (my) order, whenever Sar Faráz Khán Abdūl Latif Khán* comes to salute ‘the best of the king­dom’ and ‘pivot of state affairs’*, having raised his hand after the salutation he should follow the Khán, when he rides on a horse. If the Khán rides in a ‘pálkee’*, Sar Faráz is free from other ceremonials after saluting the Khán. If the Khán rides on an elephant, he should go after him. If the Khán speaks, he should reply; otherwise, not. Rákán­hū and other ‘Panj Hazáris’ should dismount and salute the Khán. Asad Khán should give a betel to Rákánhū and say good bye to other ‘Panj Hazáris’.
