Note 59 — PART I.—DESCRIPTION.
Reading edition
The emperor Jehángír thus describes (Memoirs Pers. Text, 181) his visit to Násir-ud-dín’s grave. It is related that when during his reign Sher Khán Afghán Súr (a.d. 1540–1555) visited Násir-ud-dín’s grave he ordered his attendants to flagellate the parricide’s tomb: When I visited the sepulchre I kicked his grave and ordered those with me to do the same. Not satisfied with this I ordered his bones to be dug out and burned and the ashes to be thrown into the Narbada. ↑
