They vary in strength, and his pay is set according to how far he draws. Whoever wishes to be enrolled as a horseman: there is a target-drum set up, and he gallops his horse and strikes it with his lance. There is also a ring hanging from a low wall; he gallops his horse until he comes level with it, and if he lifts it off with his lance, that counts as good among them. Whoever wishes to be enrolled as a mounted archer: there is a ball placed on the ground, and he gallops his horse and shoots at it. His pay is set according to the accuracy he shows in this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.7.2](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.10.7.2) - [Next: 10.7.4](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.10.7.4) - [Up: 10.7](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.10.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.10.7.3) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.10.7.3](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta.10.7.3) · Pramāṇa
