The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 181 — SECTION I. FARGHĀNA.

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

The B.N. contains a considerable number of what are virtually footnotes. They are sometimes, as here, entered in the middle of a sentence and confuse the narrative; they are introduced by kīm, a mere sign of parenthetical matter to follow, and some certainly, known not to be Bābur’s own, must have stood first on the margin of his text. It seems best to enter them as Author’s notes.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
