In the original edition a small coloured illustration of this tomb, from a miniature, is given on Plate 24.  Carr Stephen (pp. 102-7) gives a good and full account of Nizam-ud-din and his tomb.

9.  According to Harcourt (p. 108), the tomb of Khusru was erected about A.D. 1350, but this is a misprint for 1530.  The poet, whose proper name was Abul Hasan, is often called Amir Khusru, and was of Turkish origin.  He was born A.D. 1253, and died in September, 1325.  His works are numerous. (Beale.) The grave, and wooden railing round it, were built in A.H. 937 (A.D. 1530-1). . . .  The present tomb was built in A.H. 1014 (A.D. 1605-6) by Imad-ud-din Hasan, in the reign of Jahangir, and this date occurs in an inscription under the dome and over the red sandstone screens. (Carr Stephen, p. 115.) In the original edition a small coloured illustration of this tomb, from a miniature, is given on Plate 24.  See Fanshawe, p. 241.

10.  Akbar II, who died in 1837.

11.  When the author was with his regiment, after the close of the Nepalese war.

12.  Harcourt (p. 109) truly observes that this tomb ’is a most exquisite piece of workmanship.  The tomb itself, raised some few feet from the ground, is entered by steps, and is enclosed in a beautiful cut marble screen, the sarcophagus being covered with a very artistic representation of leaves and flowers carved in marble.  Mirza Jahangir was the son of Akbar II, and the tomb was built in A.D. 1832 ’.

’He was, in consequence of having fired a pistol at Mr. Seton, the Resident at Delhi, sent as a State prisoner to Allahabad, where he resided in the garden of Sultan Khusro for several years, and died there in A.D. 1821 (A.H. 1236), aged thirty-one years; a salute of thirty-one guns was fired from the ramparts of the fort of Allahabad at the time of his burial.  He was at first interred in the same garden, and subsequently his remains were transferred to Delhi, and buried in the courtyard of the mausoleum of Nizam-ud-din Aulia.’  (Beale, Dictionary.) The young man’s ‘overt act of rebellion’ occurred in 1808, and his body was removed to Delhi in 1832.  The form of the monument is that ordinarily used for a woman, ’but it was put over the remains of the Prince on a dispensation being granted for the purpose by Muhammadan lawyers’. (Carr Stephen, p. 111.)

13.  Muhammad Shah reigned feebly from September, 1719, to April, 1748.  ’He is the last of the Mughals who enjoyed even the semblance of power, and has been called “the seal of the house of Babar”, for “after his demise everything went to wreck".’ (Lane-Poole, p. xxxviii.) Nadir Shah occupied Delhi in 1738, and is said to have massacred 120,000 people.  The tomb is described by Carr Stephen, p. 110.
