She was not very good-looking, but very clever, capable of dissimulation \[165\], bright, mirthful, fond of jokes and amusement, much more so than her sister Begam Sahib. But she was not of equal rank with the latter. She was generous, and drank wine when she could get it. On the whole she had not the same liberty, and was not so much confided in as Begam Sahib, nor had she the same powers, seeing that she lived within her father's harem. In spite of her power of concealment, she could not hide the fact that she was the declared enemy of Dara and of Begam Sahib. As she lived in the palace, she never was at a loss for finding out matters of importance, and of these she sent secret intelligence to her brother Aurangzeb, who thereupon took remedial measures. - [Previous: 65.14.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.14.3) - [Next: 65.14.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.14.5) - [Up: 65.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.14) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.14.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.14.4) · Pramāṇa
