v1.c4.43

∗ Hamiduddin Khan’s Ahkam-i-Alamgiri, Ir. MS. 15a & b. Dara Shukoh is unjustly taunted with cowardice in the above speech. He was at some distance from Shuja and Aurangzib, and could not, even if he had wished it, have come to Aurangzib’s aid as the affair was over in a few minutes. For another version of the incident, see Dow, iii. 136.
