Bābur's journey resumed.\_) Having ridden out at the Mid-day Prayer for an excursion, we got on a boat and \_\`araq\_ was drunk. The people of the party were Dost Beg, Mīrzā Qulī, Aḥmadī, Gadāī, Muḥammad \`Alī \_Jang-jang\_, \`Asas,\[1424\] and Aūghān-bīrdī \_Mughūl\_. The musicians were Rauḥ-dam, Bābā Jān, Qāsim-i-\`alī, Yūsuf-i-\`alī, Tīngrī-qulī, Abū'l-qāsim, Rāmẓān \_Lūlī\_. We drank in the boat till the Bed-time Prayer; then getting off it, full of drink, we mounted, took torches in our hands, and went to camp from the river's bank, leaning over from our horses on this side, leaning over from that, at one loose-rein gallop! Very drunk I must have been for, when they told me next day that we had galloped loose-rein into camp, carrying torches, I could not recall it in the very least. After reaching my quarters, I vomited a good deal. - [Previous: 925.4.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.4.9) - [Next: 925.5.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.2) - [Up: 925.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.1) · Pramāṇa
