2.2.11

A'zam Shah, though much wounded, was still alive, when a whirl of dust winded towards him from the army of Shah 'Alam. From this now issued with a select band the Princes 'Azimu-sh Shan, Muizzu-d din Jahandar Shah, and Jahan A'zam Shah soon received a mortal wound from a musket-ball, and resigned his soul to the Creator of life. The Prince Walajah also sank down in the sleep of death. I now made my escape to Agra, not choosing to go to the enemy's camp, where I had many friends who would have given me protection.
