33.15.7

As to Umad-el-mulk who had moved to Data-sindiah's assistance, he no sooner was informed of the Abdalies coming, than fearful of his being likely to be called to an account for his ingratitude and cruelties, as well as trembling for his own safety, he parted company with Data-sindiah, and took shelter in the hilly country of the Djattas, resolved not to move until the horizon should appear cleared. The Radja shewed him the utmost regard, and assigned his residence in one of the best fortresses of his dominions. Meanwhile the Abdali was advancing with ardour from Lahor; but observing by the way that the country of Doabah had been so eaten up by the Marhattas in their many expeditions through it, that there remained neither grain nor forage for himself, he altered his route, and crossing the Djumnah, he marched into the Anterbid country, which we have already mentioned to be that tract of ground spreading betwixt the great rivers of Ganga and Djumnah. And as these two rivers take their sources in the mountains of Camao, in the north of India, and after having parted company, join again at Ilahabad; the Anterbid country of course commences at the foot of those mountains, and ends at the confluence of those two rivers.
