5

The Government of the fort of Kohram and of Samana were made over by the Sultan to "Kutbu-d din, on whose fortunate forehead the light of world-conquest shone conspicuous," "and who by his lofty courage and pure faith without doubt was worthy of the kingdom and suitable for the throne of sovereignty; and by the aid of his sword of Yemen and dagger of India became established in independent power over the countries of Hind and Sind," "He purged by his sword the land of Hind from the filth of infidelity and vice, and freed the whole of that country from the thorn of God-plurality, and the impurity of idol-worship, and by his royal vigour and intrepidity, left not one temple standing." "He extinguished the flame of discord by the splendour of the light of justice, and the smoke of the darkness of oppression vanished from the face of the earth." The chiefs of the country around Kohram came to pay their respects and acknowledge fealty, and he was so just and generous "that the name of Naushirwan and the tale of Hatim Tái were in course of oblivion."
An assembly is commenced, a feast is held, and the sumptuous preparations described. — The merits of cup-bearers, wine, goblets, companions, flowers, hunting, horses, falcons, panthers, dogs, and huntsmen are poetically eulogized.
