Shah Bhaug, a Summer Palace, built by the Emperor Shah Jehan, on 



the Banks of the Sabermatty. 



The palace, park, and gardens, at Shah Bhaug are fully described in the 

 Memoirs. This imperial villa was built in the beginning of the seven- 

 teenth century, and is still in complete repair. The external decorations 

 and interior apartments exhibit an excellent specimen of Mogul archi- 

 tecture. 



LXXVIII. 



Temple of Fountains, at Cambay. 



The drawing was taken from a temple of marble, with perforated co- 

 lumns, each supplying a fountain round the dome, as described at large 

 in the work. It stood in the centre of a canal in the garden called Dil- 

 Gusha, or the " Expansion of the Heart," belonging to the Cambay Na- 

 bob, surrounded by fragrant flowers and aromatic plants ; especially the 

 keurah, mogree, roses, jasmin, and double tube-roses. 



LXXIX. 



The Keurah Tree, in its common Form. 



The Keurah tree, (or rather shrub, as it seldom exceeds eight or ten feet in 

 height,) is a universal favourite with the natives of India, of all castes and 

 descriptions. The flowers and farina of this plant are exquisitely fragrant, 

 and more delicate than the mogree, champaca, and other powerful flowers 

 in the oriental gardens ; it is common throughout Hindostan, and planted 

 in many parts for hedges, scenting the atmosphere with a delicious per- 

 fume. The Keurah is called by various names in different parts of India; 

 and is the Pandanus Odoratissimus of Linnaeus.
