54.2
When Amir Sayyid Ali took the daughter of Isan Bugha Khan for his son Muhammad Haidar Mirza (as will be related below), he marked his joy by striking a nail into a wall, which I have myself seen. If one man stand upright, and a second, placing his feet on the first, also stand upright and stretch out his hand, he will not reach the nail by about an ell [gaz]. On this account Amir Khudaidad loved Amir Sayyid Ali better than all his children.
