When Aurangzeb had arrived here, Shaistah Khan and Muhammad Amin Khan, son of Mir Jumlah, with many others then in the city, went forth to receive him. They offered him costly presents, and congratulated him on his great success, all of them in high spirits at seeing what they had so keenly desired. I do not know that among the men of any standing there were more than two not included in the ranks of the traitors. These were Danijbad can (Danishmand Khan), the greatest scholar in the empire, and Mecoromcan (Mukarram Khan), physician of Shahjahan, natives of Persia, who both stopped at home and declared their neutrality. - [Previous: 65.26.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.7) - [Next: 65.26.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.9) - [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.65.26.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.26.8) · Pramāṇa
