Then, by the king's order, Kirat Singh went to Kabul, and I determined to move to Lahor and give myself out as a doctor. I could not start this at Dihli, where there were already some Europeans, while in Lahor there was none. On reaching Lahor I found that Muhammad Amin Khan was governor, Aurangzeb having kept his promise to make him a viceroy. As soon as \[134\] I arrived I put up in the sarae with my grand carpets and my petty establishment, until I could find a house. I hired one belonging to Barqandaz Khan, my commander in Dara's time (I. 156, 240), and I instructed my servants to inform everyone who asked about me that I was a Farangi doctor. Through this many came to talk with me, and in return I had no want of words, God having given me a sufficiently mercurial temperament. Thus it began to be noised in Lahor that a Frank doctor had arrived, a man of fine manners, eloquent speech, and great experience. I rejoiced at such a reputation, but my heart beat fast, for then I had had no experience. It pleased God, our Sovereign Lord, to open the door to me with a case furnished me by his Divine Providence. - [Previous: 139](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.139) - [Next: 140.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.140.2) - [Up: 140](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.140) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.140.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.140.1) · Pramāṇa
