c8.s2.13

The gallant fight and death of Rana Hammīr has been attributed by some writers to his persistence (Hammīr hath);²³ but it must be admitted that Hammīr is one of those gallant sons of Rajputana who died fighting the Muslim invader to save the ever-cherished independence of thier motherland. Once he had given shelter to Mughal noblemen, he could never betray them into the hand of their enemy. Hammīr fought with sublime courage, and upheld the noble traditions of the chivalrous race to which he belonged.
