There is still another title-page : ' Quinta Parte | del raconto della Storia del Mogol | In questo presente anno | 1705 | nel mese di Genaro | di | Nicolo Manucci Veneziano.' | On p. 201, 'Account of Persecutions suffered by the Capuchins ' is said to be from the French, and translated by Count Andrea Cardeira. On p. 321 is the death of Aurangzeb, February 24, 1707 ; on p. 329 Prince Akbar's last letter to his father, with four lines of verse in the middle. On p. 339 we are told that Aurangzeb's final illness began on February 7, 1707. 'Azam Shah's coin inscription is given on p. 341, under the date of March 15, 1707. The work ends on p. 345. The only complete and consecutive text of Part V. now extant being the Italian version given in this Codex XLV., I have used it in preparing my translation. There are some repetitions of matter already contained in Codex XLIV., and these I have omitted from Part V., giving merely a reference to the page in that manuscript. I saw the Codex XLV. when at Venice in 1902, and Part V. was copied for me by Signor Carlo Alberto Corti. It remains to say a word or two of how I got upon the track of these Venice Codices XLIV. and XLV. (Zanetti). - [Previous: 10.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.10.1) - [Next: 10.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.10.3) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.10) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.10.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.10.2) · Pramāṇa
