This post is faster than the horse post. Sometimes they carry by this post fruits from Khurāsān that are prized as rarities in Hind; they put them on platters and run with them until they reach the Sultan. In the same way they also carry the chief criminals: they place the man on a bed, lift it above their heads, and run with him. Likewise they carry water for the Sultan to drink when he is at Dawlat Ābād, bringing it from the river Gang, to which the Hindus go on pilgrimage.
