∗ Mirza Muhammad, 384; Khafi Khan, ii. 792. Mirza Muhammad (385), who was there, says that even after the Emperor, with many nobles and a number of spectators had left, there were still so many of Qutb-ul-mulk’s men present, that you could not tell that any one had gone away. As a consequence of this attempt, Qutb-ul-mulk enlisted twenty thousand new men, and, contrary to his previous practice accepted the services of men who were not Barha Sayyids.
