The Nāṣirī Generations 244.5.1

244.5.1

When the new year of 652 H. came round, a change took place in the condition of the number of oppressed, who, by the hand of tyranny, and through removal from office, occasioned by the absence of Ulugh Khan-i-A'zam. had remained in a place of seclusion like unto fish without water and the sick without sleep, from night to day, and, day to night, continued to beseech the Holy Creator, that the morn of the Ulugh Khani prosperity might raise its face from the east of power, and the darkness of the Rayhani tyranny might be changed to the sun-light of the Ulugh Khani administration. The Most High God was graciously pleased to grant the prayers of the afflicted, and the appeals of the distressed, and was pleased to cause the victorious standards of Ulugh Khan-i-A'zam to be given to the wind from the preserved city of Nag-awr, towards, and with the design of proceeding to, the capital.
