The Khan is (my) superior, if he will kindly come to Jawll and grant (me) an audience then I may go to see him. It will signify his greatness, if the Khan will take me by his hand, restore my confidence by words of hope and secure my welfare by conducting me to the audience of the Badshab. Bring him with you by some such professions." With these instructions, he sent Pantajl Pant. \[19\] He went and met the Khan at Wai. He submitted (to him) the message. "The Raje is timid. He has his suspicions about coming here for an interview. You should yourself proceed to Jawli. He will come there to meet you. Give him assurances and take him with you." So said he. Thereupon the Khan, highly pleased, marched on and came to Jawli down the ghat of Radtondi. He encamped below Pratapgad and halted there. On all sides in the neighbourhood, — in various places where water could be had, descended 12,000 soldiers and musketeers with artillery waggons, elephants, and carts, in connection with camel swivels. Pantaji Pant was sent up to the fort with a message asking the Raje to come to the interview. - [Previous: 1.3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.maratha.bakhar.sabhasad-bakhar~en-sen.1.3.2) - [Next: 1.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.maratha.bakhar.sabhasad-bakhar~en-sen.1.3.4) - [Up: 1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.maratha.bakhar.sabhasad-bakhar~en-sen.1.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.maratha.bakhar.sabhasad-bakhar~en-sen.1.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.maratha.bakhar.sabhasad-bakhar~en-sen.1.3.3) · Pramāṇa
