281.13.4

Let us come back to Shiva Ji. This rajah has had the temerity to attack the royal army while upon the march, and he pressed forward so boldly that he was within a very short distance of the royal tent [37], and the king was forced to extricate himself as best he could. He took bow and arrow in hand in order to animate and encourage his troops. At this moment a Hindu prince rushed up to his succour at the head of four thousand Rajputs, causing the enemy to retreat. Without this aid, Aurangzeb would have run a great risk of either being made prisoner or of losing his life.
