Note 38 — The Eleventh New Year’s Feast after the auspicious Accession.
Alexander Rogers translation
Text 20th Ābān, but the MSS. have 8th, and this is clearly right. By the latter part of the sentence Jahāngīr means that S͟hāh Jahān was to start first, and that he himself was to leave afterwards. The “auspicious palace” referred to in the next sentence is apparently S͟hāh Jahān’s establishment. Jahāngīr did not leave for about a fortnight. Though S͟hāh Jahān and the establishment (daulat-k͟hāna-i-humāyūn) made a start on the 8th or 9th Ābān, he did not finally leave till the 20th Ābān. See infra. ↑
