To get possession of her, he had recourse to a procuress called Giho, who feigned to be a physician. She managed cleverly to smuggle the youth into the girl's room hidden in a box, on the pretext that it contained medicines to treat the girl. The girl was a consenting party, and on Giho's advice had shammed illness. Three days afterwards the girl found that the illness from which she suffered was alleviated. The father remunerated the old woman, who came back to remove the box to her own house. Since there were not enough porters, the shoemaker lent a hand. As they went along the road they got mixed up with a string of ill-tempered camels, and there the box fell to the ground. Owing to this great fall it opened, and out came the Pathan youth, who set a-running. Seeing this, the shoemaker found out the knavery ; and the story was told all over the city, whereby this gate acquired the name aforesaid. \[The other gates are\] Shah 'Alam Darwazah ; Bhati Darwazah ; Multani Darwazah, on the road leading to Multan ; Mori Darwazah ; Ghakkari Darwazah, leading to the lands of the Ghakkars ; Kashmiri Darwazah, which opens on the road to Kashmir.
