With this object they prayed me to render this service to their Company, and they associated with me in the task a Brahman clerk long in the service of the Company, whose name was Ramapa. At that time he was not in their service. I started and carried with me a fine present, consisting of two cannon, several lengths of broad-cloth in scarlet and other colours, other pieces of gold cloth of Europe and China, and several rareties such as mirrors of all sizes, different kinds of crystal vases, and some weapons such as fusils, pistols, and sabres; also different kinds of wine; added to all of which was a sum of five thousand rupees. As soon as Da,ud Khan heard that I was coming, he desired to honour me so far as to send a captain with thirty horsemen and fifty musketeers to receive me at a distance of five leagues from his camp. On the following day I gave myself the honour of going to visit him, when he displayed much tenderness and friendliness. Next I conveyed to him compliments on behalf of our governor; but he let me understand that he felt much resentment, and complained that they had not already paid him a visit. They had not taken the same trouble as the Portuguese to pay him the usual compliments. - [Previous: 291.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.291.10) - [Next: 292.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.292.1.2) - [Up: 292.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.292.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.292.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.292.1.1) · Pramāṇa
