DYNASTY OF THE KAJARS.
45
Humayun, having sustained a severe defeat, fell into
his hands, and, the vitreous humour of the eye being-
deprived of the ornament of light by the application
of diamond-like steel, placed himself in retirement,
a prey to regret. Prince Mahmud^ taking along
with him his younger brother Firooz, his own son
Prince Kamzan, with several noble Afghans, turned
for protection to the threshold of the sublime
sovereign, the benefactor of the righteous. On their
arrival at Yezd, the seat of piety, the nature of their
condition was reported at the foot of the throne
exalted as the heavens, by the devoted Ministers of
the court of splendor; on which, the friend-assisting,
foe-subduing sovereign appointed Ismail Aga from
Makri to be their Mehmandar, and shew them
every mark of attention: royal firmauns to this
purport were also issued forth to the governors of
the provinces :—" In every place let their arrival be
"received with honour, and let the rights of hospi-
" tality be duly observed." When they arrived at
the imperial banquet, arranged like that of Paradise,
and obtained an interview with the resplendent po
tentate, he, with the polish of mercy and munificence ,
removed the corroding rust from the mirror of their
souls. An order was therefore given to Cheragh
% Khan Nuw'ai to maintain an uninterrupted
intercourse and unceasing intimacy with them, by
illuminating the banquet of Delight, and kindling
the lamp of hospitality in the porticoes of Joy.
