Renown trumpets everywhere the glory that you are continually adding to. Be assured that the interest I take in this is as great as if I had myself done all these fine things. Nor am I wrong in so doing, for what greater pleasure is there for an old man like me, whose only thought must be his departure from this world, than to have a son worthy of taking his place and ascending the throne of Taimur-i-lang. I am confident also that you have for me not only the feelings that Nature inspires, but in addition those that a great prince ought to have towards his king. For, in spite of some rumours being spread abroad that you contemplate assuming power as King of the World, for which you possess the qualifications, I have always considered it was your enemies who published such assertions with a view to harming you. Since I am aware of your moderation, I believe you will never dream of exercising such a power, except after the death of him to whom you owe your days. Meanwhile, until it please Heaven to withdraw me, I press you to accept the title of Merasha (Miran Shah), which is \[117\] that, as you know, given by Taimur-i-lang to his son. Furthermore, I pray you to remember me after my death. - [Previous: 294.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.294.3.4) - [Next: 294.3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.294.3.6) - [Up: 294.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.294.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.294.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.294.3.5) · Pramāṇa
