'When he conquered Mavara-un-Nahr, he left Sultan Nasir Mirza upon the throne of Kabul. On learning the Emperors approach, Sultan Nasir Mirza came out to receive him, with protestations of devotion and respect, saying: "When you withdrew your foot from the throne of the glorious kingdom of Kabul, you entrusted the high honour of government to me. And I have guarded this imperial treasure for you until, through the changes of fortune and the revolving of the spheres, you have again come to place your noble foot upon the steps of the throne. I would now crave your permission to be allowed to return to my former government of Ghazna, and would be most grateful if a few Amirs, of whom I stand in need, were appointed to my service." This devotion on the part of Sultan Nasir Mirza made a deep impression on the mind of the Emperor, who showed his gratitude by many favours, and allowed him to return to Ghazna, where Sultan Nasir Mirza died soon after \[dar hamān ayyām\]. Whereupon grave disputes arose among the Amirs in Ghazna, which shall be spoken of in their proper place. The Emperor remained in Kabul until the conquest of Kandahar; after that he conquered Hindustan, which shall likewise be mentioned in its right place.
