from Parsarur,1 made to put on a dress of honour, and given his leave.
{June gth) Next day {Thursday 3rd) we did II kurohs (22 m.), crossed the Gul-water (Gumti), and dismounted on its bank.
{ppp. Concerning the pursuit of Biban and Bdyazid.)
News came in about the sultans and begs of the advance that they had reached Dalmud (Dalmau), but were said not yet to have crossed the water (Ganges). Angered by this (delay), I sent orders, " Cross the water at once; follow the track of the rebels; cross Jun (Jumna) also; join 'Alam Khan to yourselves; be energetic and get to grips with the adversary."
{qqq. The march continued?)
{June 10th) After leaving this water {Gumti, Friday 4th) we made two night-halts and reached Dalmud (Dalmau), where most of the army-folk crossed Gang, there and then, by a ford. While the camp was being got over, ma'Jun was eaten on an island {drdl) below the ford.
{June 13th) After crossing, we waited one day {Monday Jth) for all the army-folk to get across. Today BaqI Tdshkindi came in with the army of Aud (Ajodhya) and waited on me.
{June 14th) Leaving the Gang-water (Ganges, Tuesday 8th),we made one night-halt, then dismounted {June ijth-Shazvzvdlgth) beside Kurarah (Kura Khas)on the Arind-water. The distance from Dalmud (Dalmau) to Kurarah came out at 22 kurohs (44 m.).2
{June 16th) On Thursday {10th) we marched early from that ground and dismounted opposite the Adampur pargana?
To enable us to cross (Jun) in pursuit of our adversaries, a few raftsmen had been sent forward to collect at KalpI what boats were to be had ; some boats arrived the night we dismounted, moreover a ford was found through the Jun-river.
As the encamping-place was full of dust, we settled ourselves

a The estimate may have been made by measurement (f. 356) or by counting a horse's steps (f. 370). Here the Hai. MS. and Kehr's have D:lmud, but I.O. 218 f. 328* (D:lmuu).
3 As on f. 36 \b, so here, Babur's wording tends to locate Adampur on the right (west) bank of the Jumna.
