‘When the enemy danced with rage, they were saluted with shouts of laughter and “Baa-Baa!” from along the walls. We took four hundred and eighty one sheep and a few goats, which gave sixteen days’ meat for the garrison, at three-quarters ration . . . On the 3rd a spy came in and told us that when Akbar learned that we had captured his sheep, he burst into such a transport of fury, that his people were afraid to go near him.’
