v1.c6.s29.13

Presents were selected and sent to the four Princes with a view to propitiate them, and on Donna Juliana's advice some extra gifts were sent to Prince Azim-ush-shan, who had charge of the imperial seal and was besides held to be of an avaricious nature. A part of the presents were received graciously and the rest returned. On the 12th presents were sent to Zulfiqar Khan, whose father, Asad Khan, is called "the Company's faithful friend"; and three days later others were sent to Inayatullah Khan, who is described as "provisional chancellor" meaning Wazir, and a great favourite of Azim-ush-shan. Inayatullah Khan took three pairs of spectacles, and returned the other things with assurance of his friendly feelings.
