APPENDIX I. 
Reign op Farrukhsiyar. 
A. — Farrukhsiyar’s age. • 
Authorities differ much as to the year of Farrukhsivar’s birth, nor 
do they altogether agree in the month or the day of the month. The 
earliest year is 1093 EL, the latest 1098 H. The correct year ought to 
he determined, I think, by the two chronograms composed by Jiwan 
Ram, father of Khushhal Cand. It is only fair to suppose that a man 
would not sit down to compose one of these poetical memorials, and 
then deliberately import into it an erroneous date. I therefore accept 
the year 1094 H. as correct; while for the day and month, the best 
authority is the direct statement of Ijad, the court historian, namely, 
the 19th Ramazan. I cannot understand, however, how this writer 
came to give the year 1096 instead of 1094 H. M’irza Muhammad, who 
is nearly always to be trusted, gives an age at death which confirms 
Kushhal Oand’s date (1094). 2 
1 Miftah, 303, Asar-us-mnddld, p. 53, No. 61. The inscription gives only the 
maddah, Carr Stephens 178, note, has a translation only, and a second inscription 
is also translated. 
2 The two chronograms referred to are : — 
I. Td Tiih az anjahdn Farrukhsiyar druad ba did 
“ Ruh-i-farrukh , rith-i-farruM ” dar tan-i-’dlam rasld. 
(1094) (1094) 
“ In order that Farrnkhsiyar shonld come to light from that world, 
“ A joyous soul, a joyous soul, entered the body of this world.” 
II. Gar sdl-i-tawallad-ash ba-umed * 
Goyand, u Walid-i-'Azim-i-jawed ” (1094) 
“ If the year of his hopeful birth is sought, 
“They say, ‘ Child of the Great Eternal.’ (1094) 
or, “ Child of ‘Azim now in eternity.” Khushhal Cand, fob 8b. 
The conflicting authorities may be ranged thus:— 
Tear. Month, Day. 
Kamwar Khan (38 years in 1131 H.) ... 1093 H. 
T-i Mhdl (1131.5-8—36-8-2)= ... ... 1094 9 6 
Khushhal Cand, fol. 397a, (31 in 1125 H) ... 1094
