28.2.4

From there, he sent a messenger on an elephant to Dahar to communicate to him the sad news of the fall of Debal. Dahar asked the man: “Where is Jahin Budh?” The man replied: “At Karmiti,” which word means saltish earth. Hearing this ominous name, Dahar said: “May dust lie on your head! No evil name should be mentioned in the presence of kings lest they interpret it into a bad omen. Do not say that he has come to Karmiti, that is to me” (for he has left to come to me and your words may imply that I am like salt earth). Then Muhammad Kásim came to the temple. Those who had taken shelter in the temple wanted to close the door, and burn themselves to death. The two door-keepers, however, were dragged out and killed, and entry was then made. 700 beautiful females, who were under the protection of Budh, were all captured with their valuable ornaments, and clothes adorned with jewels. Four men at a time were admitted into the fort. Some say 400 men came in at once, and took away by force their ornaments.
