The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)
therefore of Bābur, was Akbar's first wife, and brought up
Shāh-i-jahān. Jahāngīr mentions that she made her first
pilgrimage to her father's tomb on the day he made his to
Bābur's, Friday Ṣafar 26th 1016 AH. (June 12th 1607 AD.). She
died _æt._ 84 on Jumāda I. 7th 1035 AH. (Jan. 25th 1626 AD.).
Cf. _Tūzūk-i-jahāngīrī_, Muḥ. Hādī's Supplement lith. ed. p.
401.
[2857] Mr. H. H. Hayden's photograph of the mosque shows
pinnacles and thus enables its corner to be identified in his
second of the tomb itself.
[2858] One of Daniel's drawings (which I hope to reproduce)
illuminates this otherwise somewhat obscure passage, by
showing the avenue, the borders of running-water and the
little water-falls,—all reminding of Madeira.
[2859] _chokī_, perhaps "shelter"; see Hobson-Jobson _s.n._
[2860] If told with leisurely context, the story of the visits
of Bābur's descendants to Kābul and of their pilgrimages to
his tomb, could hardly fail to interest its readers.
