It was spacious, open, and every way suited for such a joyful day as a coronation, both by the loveliness of the country and the charms of the river. The latter seemed by the murmurs of its waters either to rejoice at the good luck of Aurangzeb, now almost arrived at the accomplishment of his purpose, or to weep over the disenchantment of Murad Bakhsh. When he was looking forward to being crowned, surrounded by the nobles and generals in his service and subjection, Murad Bakhsh found himself instead in the hands of the soldiers of retributory justice, and was made to pay the penalty of his obstinacy. For he would not listen to his faithful advisers, who said they were certain of Aurangzeb's evil designs. - [Previous: 65.28.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.28.5) - [Next: 65.28.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.28.7) - [Up: 65.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.28) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.28.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.28.6) · Pramāṇa
