that_o be_v always_o about_o his_o person_n and_o in_o those_o also_o that_o be_v in_o the_o field_n these_o rajas_n be_v general_o oblige_v to_o the_o same_o thing_n that_o the_o omrahs_n be_v even_o to_o the_o point_n of_o keep_v guard_n yet_o with_o this_o distinction_n that_o they_o keep_v not_o the_o guard_n within_o the_o fortress_n as_o those_o but_o without_o under_o their_o tent_n they_o

they_o refuse_v to_o pay_v tribute_n or_o when_o out_o of_o fear_n or_o other_o cause_n they_o will_v not_o go_v out_o of_o their_o country_n to_o the_o army_n when_o the_o mogul_n require_v it_o

that_o they_o proceed_v to_o fight_v with_o one_o another_o very_o frequent_o the_o four_o to_o employ_v they_o against_o the_o patans_n or_o against_o his_o own_a omrahs_n and_o governor_n in_o case_n any_o of_o they_o shall_v rise_v the_o five_o to_o employ_v they_o against_o the_o king_n of_o golkonda_n when_o he_o refuse_v to_o pay_v his_o tribute_n or_o when_o he_o will_v defend_v the_o

that_o strange_a militia_n of_o the_o mogul_n that_o we_o have_v take_v notice_n of_o and_o as_o this_o be_v the_o main_a strength_n of_o his_o state_n and_o which_o oblige_v he_o to_o incredible_a

next_o of_o the_o rousindar_n last_o of_o all_o of_o the_o simple_a horseman_n from_o thence_o let_v we_o proceed_v to_o the_o infantry_n in_o which_o we_o shall_v consider_v the_o musquetier_n and_o all_o those_o man_n on_o foot_n that_o attend_v the_o ordnance_n where_o something_o will_v occur_v to_o be_v say_v of_o their_o artillery_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v think_v that_o the_o omrahs_n

reduce_v in_o a_o manner_n to_o beggary_n and_o oblige_v to_o list_n themselves_o under_o some_o omrah_n for_o simple_a horseman_n it_o be_v true_a that_o ordinary_o the_o mogul_n leave_v some_o
