While this embassy \[to Persia\] was in progress, we were marching onwards to the city of Aurangabad, on reaching which we joined Shah 'Alam. Sending for me, Rajah Jai Singh ordered me to go as envoy to three rajahs — that is to say, Ramanagar (Ramnagar), Pentt (Pent), and Chottia (Chiutia), who are petty rajahs among the Hindus, and the Portuguese call them kings of the Colles (? Kolls). It was through their lands that Shiva Ji passed on his way to attack Surat. Rajah Jai Singh gave me a set of robes and a horse, and sent with me thirty troopers and some infantry ; also a considerable sum for expenses. My orders were to go to these rajahs, and tell them they must give their word not to \[100\] take the side of Shiva Ji, nor allow him passage. He (Jai Singh) must declare war against them in the name of the Mogul emperor, if they did not take up arms against Shiva Ji and embrace the cause of Aurangzeb. As security for their promise they must come in themselves or send their sons to attend on the court, where they would be assigned pay and rank befitting their condition.
