(\_April 13th\_) On Tuesday the 12th there arrived in Kābul the honoured Sulṯānīm Begīm, Sl. Ḥusain Mīrzā's eldest daughter, the mother of Muḥammad Sulṯān Mīrzā. During those throneless times,\[1454\] she had settled down in Khwārizm where Yīlī-pārs \[Sidenote: Fol. 235.\] Sulṯān's younger brother Aīsān-qulī Sl. took her daughter. The Bāgh-i-khilwat was assigned her for her seat. When she had settled down and I went to see her in that garden, out of respect and courtesy to her, she being as my honoured elder sister, I bent the knee. She also bent the knee. We both advancing, saw one another mid-way. We always observed the same ceremony afterwards. (\_April 18th\_) On Sunday the 17th, that traitor to his salt, Bābā Shaikh\[1455\] was released from his long imprisonment, forgiven his offences and given an honorary dress. (\_w. Visit to the Koh-dāman.\_) (\_April 20th\_) On Tuesday the 19th of the month, we rode out at the return of noon for Khwāja Sih-yārān. This day I was fasting. All astonished, Yūnas-i-\`alī and the rest said, "A Tuesday! a journey! and a fast! This is amazing!" At Bīhzādī we dismounted at the Qāẓī's house. In the evening when a stir was made for a social gathering, the Qāẓī set this before me, "In my house such things never are; it is for the honoured Pādshāh to command!" For his heart's content, drink was left out, though all the material for a party was ready. (\_April 21st\_) On Wednesday we went to Khwāja Sih-yārān.
