65.10.4

This princess, to preserve her memory, gave orders for the construction of a sarae in the square which is between the fortress and the city. This is the most beautiful sarae in Hindustan, with upper chambers adorned with many paintings, and it has a lovely garden, in which are ornamental reservoirs. In this sarae there put up none but great Mogul and Persian merchants. The king went to view the work that had been done for his beloved Begom Saeb (Begam Sahib), and he praised her energy and liberality. Sadulacan (Sa'dullah Khan), who never allowed an occasion to escape without the customary flattery, said : 'Aguer ferdus berrui zimin as, aminas, aminas' (Agar fardaus bar rue zamin ast, Hamm ast, hamm ast) — that is to say, 'If the terrestrial paradise is on earth, it is here, it is here.'
