(\_Sep. 24th\_) On Thursday we rode on, crossed the Chaṃbal-river and made the Mid-day Prayer on its bank, between the two Prayers (the Mid-day and the Afternoon) bestirred ourselves to leave that place, passed the Kawārī and dismounted. The Kawārī-water being high through rain, we crossed it by boat, making the horses swim over. (\_Sep. 25th\_) Next day, Friday which was 'Āshūr (\_Muḥ. 10th\_), we rode on, took our nooning at a village on the road, and at the Bed-time Prayer dismounted a \_kuroh\_ north of Gūālīār, in a Chār-bāgh ordered made last year.\[2256\] (\_Sep. 26th\_) Riding on next day after the Mid-day Prayer, we visited the low hills to the north of Gūālīār, and the Praying-place, went into the fort\[2257\] through the Gate called Hātī-pūl which joins Mān-sing's buildings (\_\`imārāt\_\[2258\]), and dismounted, close to the Other Prayer, at those (\_\`imāratlār\_)\[2259\] of Rāja Bikramājīt in which Raḥīm-dād\[2260\] had settled himself. To-night I elected to take opium because of ear-ache; another reason was the shining of the moon.\[2261\] (\_e. Visit to the Rājas' palaces.\_) (\_Sep. 27th\_) Opium sickness gave me much discomfort next day (\_Muḥ. 12th\_); I vomited a good deal. Sickness notwithstanding, I visited the buildings (\_\`imāratlār\_) of Mān-sing and \[Sidenote: Fol. 340b.\] Bikramājīt thoroughly.
