On Friday, the 24th, I marched four kos to Tawadkar. There was much mud on this road also, and the whole way the plum and guava trees were in blossom, and the pine-trees also were ravishing to the sight. On Saturday, the 25th, I travelled over nearly three kos and a half to the neighbourhood of Pakli. On Sunday, the 26th, I mounted and rode down some partridges. Towards evening, at the request of Sultan Husain, I went to his residence, and honoured him much in the eyes of his compeers and friends. My father also visited him. He presented some horses, swords, hawks, and falcons. I accepted some of the birds, and returned the other things.
