### [368.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.368.6)

The heroes pursued the abandoned crew for two kos, Ismail Quli Khan was caught alive. Just then news was brought that Wali Beg was wounded and lying hidden in a sugar-cane field. He too was seized, and also Husain Khān who had been blinded by an arrow. Ya’qūb Hamadānī, Ahmad Beg and many of the hostile leaders were caught in the noose of retribution. An immense booty fell into the hands of the imperial servants. Atka Khan was prudent and did not pursue the fugitives very far. It was solely by secret aid that such a victory which was the preamble of other victories, emerged from the hiding-place of fortune. H.M. the Shāhinshāh was marching with a firm mind, and a contented soul. Inwardly he was keeping close to the Divine temple; outwardly he was engaged in hunting. Near Sihrind the messengers of fortune brought the good news of victory. The confused world obtained fresh repose, the materials of praise and thanksgiving were provided, and the rites of joy and pleasure took the upper hand. The affairs of the Sultanate received fresh arrangement. The beverage of abundance was supplied to the small-natured. The thread of understanding fell into the hands of the simple and ignorant. Dominion was freed from the hands of the proud. The king of the time was released from the oppressive partnership of the non-recognisers of right. The wisdom of the wise was increased. Dominion showed her face, prestige unveiled her countenance. The universe received fresh moisture.
