# Siyar al-mutaʾakhkhirin 42.14.8

A Translation of the Seir Mutaqherin (Haji Mustafa) 42.14.8

and this officer, on observing how the wind blew and how coldly he was supported, recalled his men, and returned much dispirited to his quarters. On the commencement of the attack, intelligence had come to Court, that Seyd-abdollah had behaved greatly to his honor; and the Emperor felicited Soltan Muazzem on the event; but the next day's intelligence having ascertained that he had been repulsed with loss, he seemed incensed against both that officer and the Prince. Upon some further intelligence, he got information of the true state of affairs, and recalled to Court both Seyd-abdollah and Roh-ollah-qhan. The former was reprimanded; and had not Roh-ollah-qhan interposed and obtained the Imperial pardon, for a miscarriage of which that officer was not guilty, he would have been disgraced with shame and infamy. This singular proceeding is reported by Hashem-aaly-qhan-qhafi, as an instance of Imperial policy, and of knowledge of the world in Aoreng-zib.
