After the treasure had been got into order, loaded up and started off, he took the loads of white \_tankas\_ off a string of camels (\_i.e.\_ \_7\_ beasts) at the citadel-treasury, and kept them. I did not demand them back; I just gave them to him. On leaving Qandahār, we dismounted in the Qūsh-khāna meadow.

Excellent \_tīpūchāqs\_, strings and strings of he-camels, she-camels, and mules, bearing saddle-bags (\_khurzīn\_) of silken stuffs and cloth,—tents of scarlet (cloth) and velvet, all sorts of awnings, every kind of work-shop, ass-load after ass-load of chests! The goods of the elder and younger (Arghūn) brethren had been kept in separate treasuries; out of each had come chest upon chest, bale upon bale of stuffs and clothes-in-wear (\_artmāq artmāq\_), sack upon sack of white \_tankas\_. In \_aūtāgh\_ and \_chādar\_ (lattice-tent and pole-tent) was much spoil for every man soever; many sheep also had been taken but sheep were less cared about! - [Previous: 913.3.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.913.3.7) - [Next: 913.4.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.913.4.2) - [Up: 913.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.913.4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.913.4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.913.4.1) · Pramāṇa
