DYNASTY OF THE KAJARS.
more, of whom nearly 200 were nobles and chief
tains of this demoniacal race, such as Abdul Ghi'as
Khan, Fuful Zayi, brother to Madad Khan, Ishak
Zayi, besides another brother to Palang Push Khan
Jamshidy, and Barkhurdar Khan, Ishak Zayi, were
made prisoners. The prince and his army obtained
immense spoil and plunder, consisting of gold, silver,
tents, furniture, horses, mules, and mountain-like
camels : the value of the wealth which thus fell into
the hands of the victorious and orthodox champions
was so great, that the imagination of the most able
arithmetician would be puzzled to note or compre
hend its amount. A jihun * of blood flowed from the
field of battle to the gates of Herat, and the brave
champions of the Faith galloped over mountains
of the slain. Such part of the Afghan force as
escaped the sword were dispersed, and the whole
extent of their calamity and perdition soon became
apparent. Muhammed Khan Kajar pursued the
fugitives to the gates of Herat; and there, throwing
up entrenchments, raised the standard of triumph
to the heavens. The discomfited Firoz arrived
at Herat on the midnight of the day of battle, ac
companied by two or three persons, in deep mourn
ing and affliction: blocked up and confined in the
fort, their heart's-blood streamed from their eyes.
* The word in the original is ion, the plural of the Arabic
word ain, " a fountain."
