When the importunity of people, however, exceeded all bounds, Sultan Salah-ud-Din commanded, saying; — “I will comply property and effects, Salah-ud-Din began to appropriate their hearts, by making them his own; and he likewise resolved to lead a new life, and renounced wine and women, riotous living and amusements, and other vicious practices. Having obtained the direction of the affairs of the country, Salah-ud-Din issued commands to read the Khutbah for Nur-ud-Din; and the latter addressed him in all his communications as the Amir-i-Sipah-salar \[’Azid having previously given him the title of Malik-un-Nasir\]. As Salah-ud-Din acquired the attachment of the people, ’Azid lost it; and he now sent for his brothers, who were in the service of Nur-ud-Din, who would not allow them to go, mentioning, as his reason, his fear lest either of them should become hostile to his brother Salah-ud-Din, but the truth was Nur-ud-Din suspected his motives. However, when Nur-ud-Din subsequently despatched his troops to operate against the Farangs, who had invaded the Misriah territory, he entrusted Salah-ud-Din’s elder brother, Shams-ud-Daulah, Turan Shah, with a command in that army, but with orders that he was not to consider Yusuf \[Salah-ud-Din\] as his younger brother, but as the lord of Misr, and his \[Nur-ud-Din’s\] lieutenant and representative; and this order Turan Shah agreed to obey.
