The Afghan History of Khān Jahān 1.3.4

1.3.4

"Our mother, Nature, never bore a son whom she did not slay! Beware, distrust the love of this murderer of her offspring!" After these events, the Almighty established Sultan Husain firmly in the possession of the kingdom. He made peace with Sultan Bahlol, by which they were both bound to remain satisfied with their own possessions for four years. Rai Partab was induced by Kutb Khan to side with Sultan Bahlol. When Sultan Husain had made peace, and arrived near the Hauz-i Hariya, he sent for Kutb Khan [Lodi] from Jaunpur, and after presenting him with a horse, a royal dress of honour, an elephant, girdles, daggers, and jewelled swords, he gave him leave to depart, and having thus treated him with all possible honour and respect, sent him to Sultan Bahlol. Sultan Bahlol, likewise, gratified Prince Jalal Khan by the kind and polite manner in which he behaved to him, and then sent him to Sultan Husain.
