56.2.3

Daulat Khan hastened to tender his submission, and his faults were pardoned as on former occasions; and on the day of public audience when they brought him into the presence with two swords tied round his neck, orders were given that he was not to be brought in in that (humiliating) manner. On the contrary, Babar sent him a respectful summons, and bidding him be seated gave him a place near himself. That is (true) generosity to shew kindness to the wrongdoer, For the generous cannot but shew kindness to a friend. However, he distributed his effects among the soldiery, and the fortress of Malot, which apparently means Malot itself, fell into the hands of Babar Padishah. Some few days after this occurrence Daulat Khan, who had been imprisoned by Babar, died in prison; and Babar proceeded to the Siwalik hills in pursuit of Ghazi Khan, and encamped at the foot of the Dun, which is a very high hill. Ghazi Khan was not to be found. Babar accordingly returned stage by stage to the frontiers of Sihrind, and pitched his camp on the banks of the Ghaghar; thence he came to the borders of Samana and Sanam, and gave orders to Amir Kittah Beg to proceed to within a short distance of the camp of Sultan Ibrahim, who, after the defeat of ‘Alam Khan, had stood fast near Dihli, and bring intelligence of the position and strength of his army; and at this camp Baban the Afghan who had been in revolt came and had an interview (with Babar).
