912 AH.-MAY 24TH 1506 TO MAY 13TH 1507 AD.\[1171\] (\_a. Bābur starts to join Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā.\_) In the month of Muḥarram we set out by way of Ghūr-bund \[Sidenote: Fol. 183b.\] and Shibr-tū to oppose the Aūzbeg. As Jahāngīr Mīrzā had gone out of the country in some sort of displeasure, we said, "There might come much mischief and trouble if he drew the clans (\_aīmāq\_) to himself;" and "What trouble might come of it!" and, "First let's get the clans in hand!" So said, we hurried forward, riding light and leaving the baggage (\_aūrūq\_) at Ushtur-shahr in charge of Walī the treasurer and Daulat-qadam of the scouts. That day we reached Fort \[Z.\]aḥāq; from there we crossed the pass of the Little-dome (Guṃbazak-kūtal), trampled through Sāīghān, went over the Dandān-shikan pass and dismounted in the meadow of Kāhmard. From Kāhmard we sent Sayyid Afẓal the Seer-of-dreams (\_Khwāb-bīn\_) and Sl. Muḥammad \_Dūldāī\_ to Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā with a letter giving the particulars of our start from Kābul.\[1172\] Jahāngīr Mīrzā must have lagged on the road, for when he got opposite Bāmīān and went with 20 or 30 persons to visit it, he saw near it the tents of our people left with the baggage. Thinking we were there, he and his party hurried back to their camp and, without an eye to anything, without regard for their own people marching in the rear, made off for Yaka-aūlāng.\[1173\] (\_b. Action of Shaibāq Khān.\_)
