12.13.5

"Yā Khwand-i ʿālam, na-mīdānam" — meaning, "We do not know." Then he said to him, "Shanīdam zaḥmat dārad" — meaning, "I have heard that he is ill." The Sultan said to him, "Baraw hamīn zamān dar khizāna yak lak tanka zar bigīrī wa pīsh-i ū bibarī tā dil-i ū khwash shawad" — meaning, "Go this moment to the treasury, take from it one hundred thousand gold tankas, and carry them to him so that his heart may be glad." He did so and gave them to him, and the Sultan ordered that he buy with it whatever Indian goods he liked, and that no one else should buy anything until he had equipped himself. He also ordered for him three ships fitted with their tackle, together with the sailors' pay and provisions, so that he could travel in them. So he set sail and landed at the island of Hurmuz, where he built a great house, which I saw afterwards.
