65.35.2
Aurangzeb saw his evil case very clearly, and thus was more urgent than ever, giving Shah Shuja' not a moment's rest. Propitious Fate decreed that at this time the long-looked-for Mir Jumlah should arrive from the fortress of Doltabad (Daulatabad), whereby he greatly served him on this most critical occasion of which I speak. One day Aurangzeb came forth from his tent seated in his sedan-chair, and took his way to the battle-field to renew the attack on Shah-Shuja'. Then came Rajah Jaswant Singh from his tent and met him, and after the usual obeisances, came close and took hold of the chair [228] with one hand, and with a disturbed face walked alongside Aurangzeb for some steps, making inquiries about the post appointed for him to occupy on that day.
