منأثر شذن شاه وفرمان داذن او بقتل شهزاذه فتنه را بالا دهذ ، وسیلاب آفت را در تموج آرذ ، وشیمشیر خشم شاه را فسان زتذ، وگفت: اگر به جزع وفزع ، وتشنیع وتقریع بنده بوذی، وهیببت وسلطنت ، ومهابت وسیاست پاذشاه، والا قصد آن کرده بوذ کی ذیل عفاف وجیب صلاح ونفس تقی وعرض نق این بنده را کی بردای صون وصلاح متردی است ، بلوث حبث وفجور خوذ ملطخ گردانذ؛ ومن بنده راکی مخدرهآ عهد ، ومرم ایام، ورابعهآ روزگارم ، از خدر عفت ، وستر طهارت برهنه ومعرا گردانذ، وفضیحت ورسوائی کنذ . امذ دارم از عدل وعاطفت پاذشاه عادل کی انصاف من ازان ناحفاظ بی عاقبت نفرمایذ ، وتأدیب این تعدی وبی حرمتی ، وتعریک 4 این خیانت وببی خویشتنی ، کی کرد ، بحد اعتبار رسانذ، چنانک دیگر متعدیان ناحفاظ را عبرت وعظت باشذ :

> The king being affected and ordering the prince's execution  
> of discord, set surging the flood of misfortune, and apply the whetstone to the sword of the king's wrath.  
> And she said, 'Were it not for this slave's anguish and cries of distress, rebukes, and reproaches, and the sovereign's awe, power,  
> majesty, and punishment, he certainly intended to defile the hem of chastity, the pocket of righteousness,  
> the pious soul, and the spotless honor of this slave—who is clad in the cloak of protection and integrity—  
> with the impurity of his own wickedness and depravity, and to strip and bare this slave—who is the secluded lady of the era, the Mary  
> of the times, and the Rābiʿa of the age—of the chamber of chastity and the veil of purity,  
> and to bring disgrace and ignominy. I hope from the justice and benevolence of the just king that he will grant me equity  
> against that unprincipled, improvident person, and carry the chastisement of this transgression and disrespect, and the reprimand  
> for this treachery and lack of self-restraint which he has committed, to the limit of exemplary punishment, so that for other unprincipled transgressors  
> it may serve as a warning and an admonition:
