This was all completed in one night ; and when they wished to fire one of the cannons they raised and then lowered the door; and many perished on both sides. Since before dawn they began to sound their warlike instruments, con- tinuing till the setting of the sun. For two months while I remained there was continual fighting, so that the unfor- tunate city was half besieged by the number of soldiers and people who came to the fighting, causing great disturbances. All this was tolerated by Custag...ialu Mahumutbec in order to have money to pay his soldiers This city was always considered a separate realm, but subject to the King of Persia. And really the inhabitants appear to me to be very worthy, good people. There are many traders and prettier women than in any other part of Diarbec. Outside the city there are four suburbs, as I will relate to you. On the east, in the mountain under the castle, there are a number of grottoes enough to form a city ; below this is another borough with very large houses.
