The entire population of Persia shared their king's prosperity. The revenue of that kingdom was remitted for three years. The chiefs of the army were lavishly rewarded; the common soldiers received 18 months' pay together, one-third of which was their due arrears, one-third an advance, and the remaining one-third a bounty. [Bayan 53.] The camp-followers received Rs. 60 per head as salary and Rs. 100 as bounty. [Jahan. 361.]
