v2.c74.s1.4

'The 'amils of the khalisa had two subordinates, a karkun (manager), and a khass-navis (accountant). These officers had been oppressors, and, leaguing with the rich, they had been a great source of evil to the poor. If, instead of these two infamous officials, one worthy and honest man should be appointed, the country would prosper, and the people would be contented.
