The Peishwa had ceded a large tract of country; he was controlled in his foreign relations, and upheld in his musnud by a British force. The territories of the other Mahratta chiefs had been dismembered; the Moghul Emperor had fallen into the hands of their great rival; and they sat down exhausted and dismayed, sensible of some of their errors when too late; but with no plan, or even sentiment of union, except hatred to that nation by which they had been subdued. - [Previous: v2.c54.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v2.c54.2) - [Next: v2.c54.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v2.c54.4) - [Up: v2.c54](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v2.c54) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v2.c54.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v2.c54.3) · Pramāṇa
