78.1.8
In those days Pir Muhammad Khan, who after Adham Khan went to the Court possessed absolute power in Malwah, collected a great force, and led it against Burhanpur and reduced Bijagarh a strong fortress by force of arms, and made a general slaughter. Then he turned towards Khandesh, and was not content with himself unless he practised to the utmost the Code of Changiz Khan [the Moghul, viz., no quarter], massacring, or making prisoners of all the inhabitants of Burhanpur and Asir. Crossing the river Narbadah he raised the conflict to the skies.
