He had been wrongly informed, and he would soon set the matter right. At the same time he commanded him to resume his sword. However, Zu,lfiqar Khan declined to take up his sword and bind it on, giving several reasons that hindered him. Thus the king's soft words went for nothing. In this way three times over the king told him to fasten on his sword, and yet he remained firm to his text, and would not obey. Seeing this, the king told his son, Kaembakhsh (Kam Bakhsh), who was present, to come forward and attach the weapon with his own hands. The prince did as he was told, and the other could hardly refuse, seeing that it was the king's own son who was conferring on him this honour. - [Previous: 335.2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.335.2.3) - [Next: 335.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.335.2.5) - [Up: 335.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.335.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.335.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.335.2.4) · Pramāṇa
