Note 7 — The Fifteenth New Year’s Feast after the Auspicious Accession

Alexander Rogers translation

On the 9th Farwardīn the offering of Iʿtibār K. was laid before me. Of jewels, cloths, etc., the value of Rs. 70,000, was accepted, and I returned the remainder to him. Muḥibb ʿAlī and Āqā Beg, envoys of the ruler of Persia, presented twenty-four horses, two mules, three camels, seven greyhounds (sag-i-tāzī), twenty-seven pieces (t̤āq) of brocade, a s͟hamāma7 of ambergris, two pairs of carpets, and two namad takya8 (woollen coverlets). Two mares with foals that my brother had sent with them were also brought before me.
