But he left all the carpets spread in his tents as a sign that he would shortly return, and had not given up the hope of taking the place. He marched away and repaired to the town of Fatepur (Fathpur Sikri), which he had founded in remembrance of a great victory won over the Pathans. Here he placed Rajah Jai Mall in solitary confinement. Meanwhile he still solicited the famous Padmini with a thousand promises, letters, and valuable presents. He sent a message to her that if she would accede to the desires of a renowned king and conqueror, he pledged his word to make of her the greatest queen in his palaces. But Padmini would not consent, neither through messages, nor presents, nor soft words of intermediaries. She remained faithful to her husband. - [Previous: 60.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.2.6) - [Next: 60.2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.2.8) - [Up: 60.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.2.7) · Pramāṇa
