` at the

day of judgment.' At night the envoy received a letter from
the chiefs, proposing terms of so disgraceful and insulting a
nature, as seemed at once to preclude all hope of terminating
our difficulties by treaty. The tenor of them was as follows:
—' That we should deliver up Shah Soojah and his whole
family, lay down our arms, and make an unconditional sur-
render ; when they might perhaps be induced to spare our
lives, and allow us to leave the country on condition of never
returning.' The envoy's reply was such as well became the
representative of his country's honour. He was astonished,
he said, ' at their departing from that good faith with which
he had been led to entertain proposals for a pacific arrange-
ment; that the terms they proposed were too dishonourable
to be entertained for a moment; and that, if they persisted
in them, he must again appeal to arms, leaving the result to
the God of battles."'
