He has compared and considered the information derived from these various sources, and has reduced it to writing. If there should appear to be any excess or deficiency, the pardon of the reader is solicited. - [Previous: 73](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.73) - [Next: 75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.75) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.74) · Pramāṇa
