328.2.5
The helpless driver, who had neither the helmet of loyalty nor the cuirass of courage, from fear of his life, pointed out his master. When Shah Quli Khan heard of his great fortune, he blessed his stars and tossed the cap of joy to the skies. He gave quarter to the driver and made him hopeful of a royal reward. He then separated that and some other elephants and left the battle-field.
