\ Of the Flight fi/Dara-cha to the Kingdoms of Sdndi W Guzerat. -Cf
the fecond Battel which he fought againf Aureng-zeb : His kiL
taken Prifoner, and death.
D Ara-cha having earn’d along with him the belt part of the Gold and Silver
which was in the Fortrefs of Agra by his Fathers advice,and being got in
to the Kingdom of Labor, was in good hopes to have rais’d an Army in alhort
time to have ftopt the proceedings of his Brother. His molt faithlul Servants
and Friends-had always accompani’d him in his misfortune. And as forhisEldeft
Son, Soliman Shekovr, he went, with the Raja King Roup, into the Territories of that
Raja King 's own demeans, to levy men y carrying along with him five-millions cf
Roupies, which make of our Money feven-millions and 500000 Livres. But
that great Sum opening the Raja King Roups eyes, he molt treacheroully andinfa-
moufly feiz’d upon it *, whereupon Soilman Chekgnr, fearing he Ihould proceed
farther,and make fome attempt upon his perfon, lied in all halt into the Kingdom
of Sirenegaer, under the protection of the Raja King Nakti-Rani, who more loully
and bafely deliver’d him up fometime after to Aureng-zeb.
Dara-cha having notice of the Raja King Roup's treafon, and feeing all his friends ,
had forfook him, and were revolted to A /^^-^,quitted Labor, and retir’d in
to the Kingdom of Scindi. Before he left the Fortrefs, he fent all. the Gold,
Silver, Jewels and Wealth that was in the Fort, away by water to Baker, a Fort
in the midll of the River Indus. To guard all that Wealth, he left an Eunuch,
and fix-thoufand men,with all provifions necefiary for a Siege} after that he went
to Sc'mdi, where he left feveral great pieces of Cannon.Then he march’d through the
Territories of the Raja King of Kacbnagana, who made him mountainous promifesto
no effeCt; then he came into the Kingdom of where the people receiv’d
him as their lawful King and Heir to Cba-jeban. He fent his Orders to all the
Cities,and particularly to where he appointed a Governor ^ but the Gover
nor of the Fortrefs, who was left there by Morat-Bakcbe, refus’d to fubmit to
Dara-cha, fo that he was forc’d to let him alone.
In the mean time Dara-cha receiv’d news at Amadabat ,th2X.JeJfomfeing, one of
the moll potent Raja King 's in all India, was fall’n off from Aureng-z.cb. 1 he lame
Raja King alfo folicits him to advance with his Army. Dara-cba confiding in his
words,follow’d his Counfel,and march’d to which was the place of Rende-
vouz appointed. But Raja King JeJfomfeing being regain’d by the perfwafions of Rup
Jejfcing, more potant than himfelf, to favour A arena-neb,nww met according to
his promife ; nor did he come till the laft pufh and then only with a delign to
betray the poor Prince. Thus the two Brothers meeting, they came to a Battel
which lalted three dayes} but in the heat of all the Fight, Jcffomfew^ Ihewingan
apparent treachery, went over to A arena-neb 5 upon which Dara-cha s Souldiers
immediately fled. Dara-cha having thus loft all his hopes,and finding Fortune con
trary to all his expectations, fled away likewife with his Wives,fome of his Chil
dren, and his moft faithful Servants, in an equipage that drew compaffion. But
coming to Amadabat, the Governor having declar’d for Aareng-neb, deni d him
entrance. Thereupon he difeamp’d in the middle of the night,and took theroa
for Scindi. ,
