In satisfaction thereof the author received from his Majesty the Sultan-i-Mu’azzam—may his sovereignty continue!—a permanent grant which should be received yearly; and, from the Khākān-i-Mu’azzam Ulugh Khān-i-A’zam—the Almighty prolong his power!—he obtained the grant of a village within the Hānsī province—may the Most High God preserve and continue the both of them on the seat of sovereignty and cushion of vicegerency! I now return to my Chronicle again. - [Previous: 204.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204.1) - [Next: 204.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204.3) - [Up: 204](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204.2) · Pramāṇa
