DYNASTY OF THE KAJARS.

that the image of assistance and generosity was not
reflected from the mirror of Beggy Jan's mean spirit,
he departed from thence to Kharezm, under the pre
text of making a pilgrimage to the House of God
(Mecca). As the governor of that province was in
the bond of sincerity and allegiance with the victo
rious sovereign, he therefore noticed his arrival with
great respect, and furnished him with all the neces
sary means for reaching the celestial court; where,
on his arrival, the equitable monarch also received
him with augmented favour; and, by his intimation.
Prince Mahmud took up his quarters in the abode
of his majesty's Prime-minister, the Vizir Mirza Mu-
hammed Shafia, who, in conformity to the command
of the incomparable sovereign, displayed the great
est zeal in treating him with respect and honour,
daily conferring on him happiness and distinction,
by presents from the treasury of the friend-protect
ing, enemy-consuming monarch. In like manner,
the Afghan chiefs, who in all the varieties of his
fortunes, whether of elevation or depression, distress
or affluence, had travelled in the road of sincerity
a nd faithfully performed the duties of sympathy
and loyal service towards him, partook of the royal
munificence and benevolence, in proportion to their
respective ranks.
