She expressed her deep grief, telling him that she was even more discomfited than he; but she had not lost all hope of some day seeing him reign peacefully — that ever would she petition God in her prayers to look favourably on him. After this talk Dara repaired hurriedly to his mansion, and ordered the removal of all the precious stones that could be carried off. At midnight he made a start, taking with him his three wives, his daughter Jani Begom (Jam Begam), his little son Super Xacu (Sipihr Shukoh), and some chosen slave-girls. On his departure for the city of Dihli he was followed by some five hundred soldiers, for the most part slaves of his household. It was a great affliction to see such a down-come. On arriving at the city of Dihli he sent at once the orders of his father to the governor, requiring him to make over the fortress. But the governor, already averted by the letters of Aurangzeb, to whom he was well affected, declined to comply with Shahjahan's orders. Thus the unhappy Dara was forced, after seizing what horses there were in the royal stables, to resume his march and make for Lahor. - [Previous: 65.25.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.6) - [Next: 65.25.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.8) - [Up: 65.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.7) · Pramāṇa
