Coming, thus attended, to pay his court to the viceroy, it would be very easy to carry out their object. For they would enter with the fixed intention of assassinating the viceroy, and consequently would come wearing concealed chain-mail. Having succeeded, some of them would jump on the horses, and, careering about, would strike terror into the inhabitants, and throw everything into disorder. Thus Sambha Jī would have time to land his force without any difficulty and capture defenceless Goa. - [Previous: 181.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.181.3) - [Next: 181.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.181.5) - [Up: 181](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.181) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.181.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.181.4) · Pramāṇa
