OF NADIR SHAH, &C. 53Q 



Most Noble Lord, if the statr f the province of 

 Fars will permit, lose not a momen. in repairing to the 

 court of the most exalted prince at hpahuii ; and re- 

 present to him that, as the peace which has been con- 

 cluded will benetit no person whosoever, and can in no - 

 light be -Viewed as proper or reputable, it neither meets 

 the approbation of the nobles nor the commonalty of 

 the empire. 



But, if you should be prevented from moving to the 

 capital, owing to the dispute with the Arabs not being 

 adjusted, let me be instantly informed. If you are 

 able to quell these troubles, it is well. But, if you 

 require aid, make me acquainted ; and a detachment 

 of my victorious army shall march to your support. ' 



Keep me regularly informed of the news of your 

 quarter.
