### [204.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.204.3)

On Thursday, the 24th of the month of Shawwāl, 645 H., that fort, after much fighting and great slaughter, was captured; and, after that, on Tuesday the 12th of the month of Zī-Ka’dah of the same year, the territory of Karah was reached. Thirty days previous to that, Ulugh Khān-i-A’zam, with the whole of the Maliks and Amīrs and forces appointed to serve under him, had been despatched on an expedition; and that lion-hearted Khān, of Rustam-like nature, like Suhrāb in battle, and of elephant-like person during that movement, showed such proofs of spirit and skill, as cannot be sufficiently praised, in important battles, the capture of strongholds and forts, making way through forests and wilds, the slaughter of obdurate infidels, the acquirement of booty and captives, together with making prisoners of the dependents of great Raes and Ranahs such as cannot be fully contained in the writing of the scribe nor the narrative of the detailer; a little has been rendered into verse in the book \[entitled\] the Nasiri Namah.
