The History of Humāyūn (Gulbadan Begam) 3.2.5

3.2.5

There came with the gifts an injunction which calls out the remark that at all crises Babar gave expression to religious feeling and performed due devotional ceremonies. He had desired Khwaja Kilan to arrange for the ladies to go out of the city to the Garden of the Audience-hall, so that they might there make the prostration of thanks for the success of his arms. They were to go in state, and to remain some days. He must have sighed as he planned an excursion so much to his liking and in which he could not share. The act of thanksgiving would be done under a summer heaven, in an enchanting June garden, of which the snowy hills were the distant girdle. Our princess will have gone out with the rest, and with them her small figure, bravely attired, will have bowed forehead to the earth in thanks to the Giver of Victory. Tender thoughts will have travelled to the absent, and especially to him who loved his Kabul as Babar did.
