Many a time, under such circumstances, I have found myself unable to bear the evil smell, and been forced to urge my horse to the gallop to get away from it, holding my nose as I did so. Sometimes I was even compelled to vomit, human nature being unable to bear such a grievous thing. The flies are in such numbers that there is no means of eating your food in peace. Travellers setting out from this army are not protected against the attacks of the Mahrattahs and other robbers; and when you are delivered from this peril, you fall into the hands of the juncaneiros (customs officers), or publicans. These take what they please unjustly and by force, and if they know that anyone has money on him, they rob him, cut his throat, and bury him. - [Previous: 339.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.339.11) - [Next: 339.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.339.13) - [Up: 339](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.339) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.339.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.339.12) · Pramāṇa
