¹ Compare the observations of Amir Khusrau. In *Qiranu’-s-Sa’dain*, 79, he emphasizes the point that the slave (i.e. the subject of the Sultan) was committing a grievous sin if he ever thought of evil against the Sultan. In another place he asks his son to be grateful to the Sultan. For, says Khusrau, let alone human beings, even a dog knows how to watch the property of his master; and it would be a perfect shame if human beings degraded themselves flower than animals in this respect. *Vide* K.K., 678; also 123.
