The physician replied: 'Your majesty may create many generals of that sort, but you cannot make any man similar to me, for it has cost me forty years to acquire the knowledge that I possess, and there is a great difference between us.' The reason of this affront became known afterwards. It was that when the general was a door-keeper he put many difficulties in the way of the physician. Thus was the proverb verified: 'What you do you get' \[Tit for tat\]. Not only was Shahjahan fond of music; he was also eager to have at his court all sorts of wrestlers. These are men of great strength, who frequently contended in his presence. And he also ordered boxing matches. But his ordinary amusement was tiger-hunting, for which he kept ferocious buffaloes with very long horns. These fought with each other or with tigers; they are very \[128\] brave animals, and skilful in the sport above referred to. - [Previous: 65.3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.3.1) - [Next: 65.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.3.3) - [Up: 65.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.3.2) · Pramāṇa
