v1.c7.s2.8
∗ Kamwar Khan, 107; Nur-ud-din, 26. There is a long letter, which I reject as apocryphal, in a work professing to be the Insha of Har Karan, son of Mathura Das Multani, and said to have been compiled in Mhd. Shah's reign (1131-1161 H.). In it Jahandar Shah expostulates with Azim-ush-shan, and ends with the defiance, Dam az mihr dah, ya ba kin zan payam, Kalam-am bar in khatam shud o us-salam. 'Breathe words of love, or send your challenge, My speech closes with this and so farewell.' According to the true Inshae Har Karan the letter, of which the above is an imitation, was addressed in 1068 H. by Aurangzeb to Dara Shukoh.
