I stayed in it till the first watch (9 a.m.) and gave away oranges; I bestowed the fruit of two trees on Shāh Ḥasan; to several begs I gave the fruit of one tree each; to some gave one tree for two persons. As we were thinking of visiting Lamghān in the winter, I ordered that they should reserve (\_qūrūghlāīlār\_) at least 20 of the trees growing round the reservoir. That day we dismounted at Gandamak. (\_Oct. 18th\_) Next day we dismounted at Jagdālīk. Near the Evening Prayer there was a wine-party at which most of the household were present. After a time Qāsim Beg's sister's son Gadāī \_bihjat\_\[1509\] used very disturbing words and, being drunk, slid down on the cushion by my side, so Gadāī T̤aghāī picked him up and carried him out from the party. (\_Oct. 19th\_) Marching next day from that ground, I made an excursion up the valley-bottom of the Bārīk-āb towards Qūrūq-sāī. A few purslain trees were in the utmost autumn beauty. On dismounting, seasonable\[1510\] food was set out. The vintage was the cause! wine was drunk! A sheep was ordered brought from the road and made into \_kabābs\_ (\_brochettes\_). We amused ourselves by setting fire to branches of holm-oak.\[1511\] - [Previous: 925.10.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.10.5) - [Next: 925.10.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.10.7) - [Up: 925.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.10) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.10.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.10.6) · Pramāṇa
