But the rapid increase of Akbar's forces and the assembling of thousands of foreign troopers round him alarmed Shambhuji. At the end of July the Maratha Rajah warned his guest, "If you wish to raise an army, go away to some other kingdom. But if you wish to live in my realm, you must remain in the same condition that you came in." He forbade any more men to join Akbar, but fixed a daily subsistence allowance of 60 hun (Rs. 300) on the prince. [Akh., 16 Aug. 1681.]
