Junaid \_Barlās\_ and Qūtlūq-qadam to leave their baggage, make sudden incursion on Dihlī, and keep watch on the treasuries.\[1682\] (\_April 21st\_) We marched on next day and when we had gone 2 miles, dismounted, for the sake of the horses, on the bank of the Jūn (Jumna). (\_April 24th\_) On Tuesday (Rajab 12th), after we had halted on two nights and had made the circuit of Shaikh Niẓāmu'd-dīn \_Auliyā\_'s tomb\[1683\] we dismounted on the bank of the Jūn over against Dihlī.\[1684\] That same night, being Wednesday-eve, we made an excursion into the fort of Dihlī and there spent the night. (\_April 25th\_) Next day (Wednesday Rajab 13th) I made the circuit of Khwāja Quṯbu'd-dīn's\[1685\] tomb and visited the tombs and residences of Sl.
