The sublime standards returned to Dihli on Monday, the 23rd of the month of Rabi'-ul-Awwal, 650 H., after which, for a period of seven months, attended by auspicious fortune and increasing felicity the Sultan continued at the illustrious seat of government, and, during this period, was engaged in the diffusion of goodness and establishing usages of justice and equity.
On Monday, the 22nd of the month of Shawwal of this year, the Sultan departed in the direction of Lohor with the intention of marching to Uchchah and Multan, and at the time of bidding farewell, in the vicinity of Kaithal, the Sultan bestowed upon the author a special honorary robe, together with a horse with complete furniture and trappings ornamented with gold, and a saddle.
During this march all the Khans, Maliks, and Amirs of the adjacent parts, assembled and attended the sublime stirrup; and Kutlugh Khan from the territory of Bhianah, and ’Izz-ud-Din, Balban-i-Kashlu Khan, from Buda’un, with their respective followings, accompanied the sublime standards to the boundary of the river Biah. ’Imad-ud-Din-i-Rayhan [at this time] secretly subverted the mind of the Sultan and the Maliks towards Ulugh Khan-i-A’zam, and their minds were greatly changed.
