### [39.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.2.7)

Shah 'Abbās changed colour, and with an angry voice told him to be silent. He declined to hear such arguments; he had only to look into the books of Moses and see the rightful verdict: 'Who slays shall himself be slain.' If he (the chief justice) had not been a descendant of Muhammad, he should have been forced to order him to be torn in pieces by lions, on account of the unjust sentence that he had given in the case where a soldier slew an Armenian. The king ordered him never to appear in his presence again, and the false accusers were expelled from the court.
