Sultan 'Ala-ud-Din returned to Ghur, and through the magnanimity and generosity of Sultan Sanjar regained his throne. This was a tradition of Sanjar's beneficence and kindliness; but the author of this Tabakat will here relate that which sets forth his sovereignty. I, Minhaj-i-Saraj, in the year 611 H., when at Firuz-koh, which was the capital and seat of government of the Sultans of Ghur, heard \[the following\] from Amir Ali, the Cha-ush \[pursuivant\], who said that his grandfather was the Marshal of the retinue of Sultan Sanjar: and that his grandfather stated, that, when Sultan Mas'ud of 'Irak, who was one of Sultan Sanjar's brothers’ sons, broke out into rebellion, and Karajah, the Saki \[cup-bearer\], who was one of Sanjar’s slaves, became his supporter in that revolt, the Sultan marched an army from Marw, with the object of falling upon the rebels unawares.
