About this time Mullá Iláhdád of Amrohah and Mullá Sherí at­tended the Court in order to flatter the Emperor; for they had been appointed to Cadr-ships* in the Duáb of the Panjáb. Mullá Sherí presented to His Majesty, a poem composed by him, entitled Hazár Shu'á',* which contained 1,000 qiṭ'ahs in praise of the Sun. His Majesty was much pleased.

In the month Zí-ḥajjah* of this year the Emperor returned thence, with a view to going to Fatḥpúr to quell the disturbances in Gujrát; but in environs of Atáwah news arrived of the victory of Mirzá Khán.
