They are formed into four divisions, and each division is called a misl.

Second misl, one from the stable of the youngest prince; one from the studbred; one from the chihilaspi stables; one courier horse. Third misl, one horse from the stables of the three princes; one stud bred. Fourth misl, one horse from each of the stables of horses of forty, thirty, twenty, and ten muhurs. His Majesty rides very rarely on horses of the fourth misl. But when prince Sháh Murád joined his appointment, His Majesty also rode the best horses of the stables of forty muhurs. The arrangement was then as follows. 1st misl, one horse from the stables of forty; one horse from the stables of the eldest and the youngest prince, and a courier horse. Second misl, stud bred horses from the stables of horses above seventy muhurs; khásah horses of forty muhurs, and courier horses. Third misl, one horse from the stables of each of the two princes, the stud bred, and the seventy muhur horses. Fourth misi, horses from the stables of sixty, forty, and thirty muhurs. Horses are also kept in readiness from the stables of twenty and ten muhurs and the Guts. - [Previous: 104](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.104) - [Next: 106](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.106) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.105](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.admin.ain-i-akbari~en-blochmann-jarrett.105) · Pramāṇa
