### [31.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.muntakhab-al-tawarikh~en-ranking-lowe-haig.31.3)

The Amirs and Maliks of Ghiyasu-d Din's party, intervened with advice to come to peaceful terms and Sultan Nasiru-d Din with a party of special retainers crossed the river as it had been agreed that the son should sit upon the throne and the father, standing below the throne, should pay the customary dues of reverence and respect to him. Sultan Mu'izzu-d Din from excess of desire forgot that compact, and on the instant his eyes fell upon the splendid presence of his father he came down from his throne and running barefooted, was about to fall at his feet. The father however would not permit this, whereupon each embraced the other and for a long time they wept bitterly, and in spite of all the father’s attempts to take his stand at the foot of the throne, the son forcibly took him by the hand, and led him to the throne and seated him upon it. Then he also took his seat and after a long time the Sultan Nasiru-d Din returned to his own camp and sent as presents to his son a large number of famous elephants and very many extremely valuable presents and curiosities and priceless treasures from the country of Lakhnauti.
