To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When Bairam came, with his turban round his neck and bathed in tears, to throw himself at his master's feet, Akbar, forgetting all but his eminent services, raised him from the ground, seated him on his right hand, and invested him with a dress of honour. He then offered him three alternatives : an important pro- vincial government, a distinguished post at court, or a royal retinue and suitable income to make his pilgrimage to Mecca. Prudence and piety counselled him to accept the last ; accord...ingly he was allowed an annual pension of ^5,000, and he then set out for Guzarat On the way he turned aside to offer his devotions at Sahassak, or " The Thousand Temples," where he fell beneath the dagger of an Afghan, whose father he had killed in battle in the reign of Humayun. Relieved from a control which had grown oppres- sive, and from a system of administration of which his sagacity disapproved, Akbar felt at liberty to shape out a great design, and to its accomplishment directed all his energies during his long and memorable reign.
