Storia do Mogor 156.2

I was warned of the plot, and spoke to Fida,e Khan about the qazis intentions. He sent at once a messenger to court to report that the population of Lahor were restless, and if there came in any complaint about the beheaded man, Thika, Arain, it must not be listened to, for the qazi and others had been his supporters. This was enough to secure that on the arrival of the complaint at court, where many had clad themselves in mourning to present the petition, the king should send them away after saying very little, with the remark : ' Caziey zemi, bessare zemi ' {Qazayd-i-zamln bar-sar-i-zamln). This means : ' Cases about land are settled on the land itself.' Thus I was left unharmed for that once and freed from a great persecution that would have cost me my life.
