XXXIV-MUHAMMADAN INSCRIPTIONS FROM THE SOBA OF DIHLI.
_No. II.
BY PAUL HORN, PH.D., STRASSBURG. The following inscriptions are in continuation of, and in addition to those contained in a previous paper, ante, pp. 130 seq. I begin with Fathåbåd, which was there represented by the inscription from Firoz Shah's famous pillar.'
FATHABAD. 1. To the left of the mihrāb of what is now an 'fdgah in the fort of Fathahad, is a light-coloured rectangular sandstone, with an inscription of ten lines, measuring 2'3' by
* In the prose passage, from here up to the end of line 27, it is impossible to say exactly how many akaharas are broken away in each place.
> Metre : Sloka (Anushtabh).
Below this line some more akahara, have been roughly engraved; but they are quite illegible in the impression.
Mr. H. B. W. Garriok, in General Cunningham's Archeological Survey Reporta, vol. XXIII, p. 11, remarks that Maulawi Ziya uddin Khan has been successful in deciphering the long inscription on the above-mentioned monolith (ree plate II there); bat, no far as I know, the translation has not yet been published.
