98.1.8

The young king, in the mean time, having attained the age of manhood, became enamoured of a dancing girl called Ameena, whom he married, and placed at the head of the ladies of his seraglio. From her he learned to drink wine, which Mookumil Khan having understood, he approached the throne, and laid the seals of his office at the feet of the King, saying, "While your Majesty was a child, I (the humblest servant of your throne) carried on the affairs committed to my charge to "the best of my ability; but now that you are "able personally to conduct the affairs of the state, "you must excuse me from interfering in public "business." Boorhan Nizam Shah complied with the minister's request, but raised his sons to high rank, and conferred the office of Peshwa on Sheikh Jafur Deccany. Mookumil Khan ever after lived retired, going to court occasionally only at the earnest request of his friends; but resisted every attempt to induce him again to engage in public business, till at length he died a natural death.
