The Hifiory of the Empre
The fecond is in regard of the Etnir-Jemla. It were to injure this great Man, to paf s
by with filence his deportment to Anreng-Zebe after the War, and the manner of end
ing his days. This eminent perfon after he had difpatched the Adair of Bengale
with Sultan Sujab (the fecond of thefe four Brothers) not like Gmk#n> that infamous
Tatan w'nb. Dara i nor like the of Serenagmr with Soliman-Chelyub i but like a
Great Captain and dextrous Polititian, purfuing him as far as theSea-lide, and ne~
eeflitating him to fiy and to efcape out of his hands 5 after, I fay, he had done thefe
things, he fent an Eunuch to Attreng-Zebe, intreating him, that he would give him
leave to tranfport his Family to Bengale i that now that the War was at an end,and he
broken with Age, he hoped he would grant him the advantage of ending his life i n
the company of his Wife and Children.
But Aureng-Zebe is too fliarp-fighted, not to pierce into the defigns of Emir, He
feeth him triumphing over Sujab j he knows his great credit and reputation, and
that he hath the efteem of a very wife, undertaking, valiant and rich man i and that
the Kingdom of Bengale is not only the beft of all Indoftan, but ftrongof it felf, and fur
ther, that this Emir is in the head of a well difciplin’d Army, which both honours
and fears him. Befides, he is not ignorant of his ambition, and forefeeth well enough,
that if he fhould have with him his Son Mabmet-Emirkan , he would afpire to the
Crown, and at lead take full poffeflion of Bengale^ if he fhould not be able to ad
vance things further. At the fame time he is alfo well aware, that, there is danger
in refufing him, and that he may pollibly prove fuch a man, as in cafe of denial, may
run into feme dangerous extream, as he had done in Golkonda* How then, think ye,
did he carry himfelf in this conjundure ? He fends to him his Wife and Daughter, and
all the Children of his Son : He maketh the Emir a Mir-Vl Omrab, which is in that
Empire the greated degree of honour that a Favourite canberaifed to: And as to
Mabmet-Emirhan, he maketh him the Great-Bakebps, which is a dignity and charge
like that of our Great Mader of the Horfe, the fecond or third Office in the State, but
fuch an one as abfolutely obligeth the pofTeffor of it to be always at the Court, not
fuffering him, but very difficultly, to be abfent from the perfon of the King.
The Emir foon perceived, that Aureng-Zebe had skilfully put by the droke, that it
would be in vain the feccnd time to ask of him his Son > that he could not do it with
out offending him} and that therefore the fafed way would be to red contented with
all the tedimonies of Friendfhip, and with all the Honours, together with the Go
vernment of Bengale j being in the mean time always upon his guard, and in fuch a
podure, that fince he could attempt nothing againd Aureng-Zebe (hould
not be able to attempt any thing againd him.
Thus have we feen thefe two Great Men carry themfelves to one another: And in
this condition did affairs remain foralmod a yeari till Aureng-Zebe, too well know
ing that a great Captain cannot be long at red, and that, if he be not employed in a
Foreign War, he will at length raife a Domedickones propofed to him to make War
upon that rich and potent Raja of Acbam, whofe Territories are on the North of
Vake, upon the Gulf o{ Bengale. The Emir, who in all appearance had already de-
hgned th*is fame thing of himfelf, and who believed, that the Conqued of this Coun
try, would make way for his Immortal Honour, and be anoccafion of carrying his
Arms as far as China, declared himfelf ready for this Enterprize. He embarked at
l)akg with a puiffant Army, upon a River which comes from thofe parts i upon which
having gone about an hundred Leagues North-Eadwardj he arrived at a Cadle cal
led Azo, which the Raja of Acbam had ufurped from the Kingdom of Bengale, and
poffeffed for many years. He attacked this place, and took it by force in lefs than
hfteen days j thence marching over Land towards Chamdara, which is the Inlet into
the Country of that Raja} he entred into it after 26 days journey, dill Northward:
There a Battel was fought, in which the Raja ofAchamwas worded, and obliged to
retreat to Guerguon, the Metropolis of his Kingdom, four miles didant from Cbamdara.
The Emir purfued him fo clofe, that he gave him no time tofortide himfelf inGm-
gmn : For he arrived in fight of that Town in five days, which condrained the Tap,
feeing the Emir’s Army, to fly towards the Mountains of the Kingdom of Lajfa, and
to abandon Guerguon, which was pillaged, as had been Chamdara. They found there
vafl riches, it being a great, very fair and Merchant-like Town, and where the Wo
men are extraordinarily beautiful. Mean time, the feafon of the Rains came in
fooner
