Issuing from the city, I saw several squadrons dispersed in the plain. As I imagined these to be our men, I decided to join them. Then I saw that a body of some five hundred horsemen with its commander was bearing down upon me. On its drawing near, the leader advanced from it, attended by two horsemen. When quite close he asked me lovingly where I was going. I replied without subterfuge that I was on my way to find my master, Dara. He took compassion on my youth and innocence, and said to me that if I followed his advice, I should return home, for if I proceeded farther I ran great risk of losing my life. This captain was so generous that, to protect me, he escorted me safely to my house. - [Previous: 65.26.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.1) - [Next: 65.26.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.3) - [Up: 65.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.2) · Pramāṇa
