were, notwithstanding, offered with the most profound respect ; and he 
continued his journey towards the capital. 
After six days he arrived at Taygaw Goombaw, where he was met by the 
prince, the Emperor’s first son, and Cheengeeah Gooroo, a priest, or man of 
the first religious order, together with ten thousand troops and attendants. 
The prince was received by the Lama at his tent, who continued upon his 
seat, until the prince arrived at the door, where the Lama met him, and 
taking him by the hand, led him to his seat, which was formed of several 
embroidered cushions, of different sizes, each laid upon a boarded platform; 
upon the largest of which the Lama placed himself, and seated the prince 
upon a small one, at his left hand, which he, however, would not occupy, 
until the Lama had first received from him a string of very valuable pearls, 
sent by the Emperor. On the next morning the Lama, accompanied by the 
prince, and his followers, proceeded on his journey for nineteen days, when he 
arrived at the city of Tolownoor, where, during seven days, Cheengeea 
Gooroo, entertained the Lama, and the prince, and presented the Lama, at 
one of these entertainments, with forty thousand illeung of silver, and other 
customary presents. 
After this, continuing their journey for fifteen days, to a considerable 
town, called Singhding, he was met by another prince, a younger son of the 
Emperor, who, after being introduced, and his presents received, informed 
the Lama, that the Emperor was arrived at a country seat, called Jeeawaukho, 
about the distance of twenty-four miles from Singhding, whither he had come 
to receive the Lama, and where there were most beautiful and extensive parks 
and gardens, with four or five magnificent houses. 
The Lama proceeded next morning, attended by the princes, 8cc. to wait 
upon the Emperor; and being arrived within about three and a half coss, or 
seven miles, of the Emperor’s residence, he found the troops of the Emperor 
formed in a rank entire, on each side of the road, between which He, and the 
princes, with his brother, and six of his followers only (the writer of this 
was one of his attendants at this time, by the Lama’s particular desire), 
passed on all the way to the palaces of Jeeawaukho; and upon the Lama, See.
