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. - [Previous: 54.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.54.1) - [Next: 54.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.54.3) - [Up: 54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.54) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.54.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.54.2) · Pramāṇa
