These steps were intended to be used for carrying up the grain, the building being filled through a small aperture at the top, and up them Shah Maharaj, the present premier of Nepaul, is said once to have ridden his pony a most daring feat of horsemanship and nerve. On one side were two large stone tablets with inscriptions the one in Persian, the other in English.

And he said, in a low voice, to Atirupa: Maháráj, for I have heard of Chamu, that he is thy widushaka, let him be at hand: for with thy permission, he and I will settle all the details of this negotiation, as soon as it has received thy own approval. And Atirupa said: Chamu, be ready, when I call.

He answered the prince carelessly. "The Dewan sent for me to see him before I came to you, Maharaj Sahib." "Why? What for? That man thinks that he is the ruler of Lalpuri, not I," grumbled the Rajah. "I gave orders that you were to be sent to me as soon as you arrived. I want news of the girl. Is she still there?" "Yes; she is still there."

In 1771, when Shah Alam was returning to the throne of his ancestors, Chatr Singh, the then Zemindar, advanced money to the Treasury, and was soon after created a peer by the title of Maharaj Rana. Henceforth he figures in history as the "Rana of Gohad."

He feigned sleep and tried to roll a foot or two away, but Maharaj had grown suspicious, and rolled him back, so that he lay flat on his shoulder-blades between the forelegs of the elephant, watching the restless swing of the trunk above him. This was better than looking at what lay beside him, and he wanted no inducement to keep his gaze averted. A hyena laughed like an exultant fiend.

About four o'clock Maharaj became very restless, thinking it was time to start, and pulled and pushed Tippoo till he sat up, rubbing his eyes and looking about in a dazed way. The elephant went down on his knees, and the boys took advantage of the invitation and were soon in their places. Then Maharaj slowly picked up his burden and they recommenced their journey home.

Maháráj, I tell thee, that were the three great worlds but one colossal oyster shell, she is its very pearl. And like a cunning diver, I have been down into the sea, and seen it, and now I can take thee where it is, to see it for thyself. And as I think, thou wilt discover, she is a quarry to thy taste, who will save thee from the necessity of seeking for others in the ashes of thy town.

Then the mahout, weak as he was, helped them off, and set about washing the dark red stains away. "Ahhi! ahhi!" he sobbed. "I have lost a nephew.

The day the boy came with sweets Maharaj was delighted, for he smelt them a long way off, and never made a mistake as to which pocket they were in. It was wonderful to see how gently he could play with the little brown baby of the mahout.
