History of the Sikhs: Or Translation of the Maharaja de Raj to Vikhia, As of the for By the English, a and Containing (Classic Reprint)

This translation of tK is work has been by no means neasy task, as the sentences in the original, and in the tpart mate particularly, are so disjointed, that it wte ydiffidtilt to render them into English. I have, theree, mtA def the translation as nearly literal as possible Hag ords, in brackets, to connect the meaning. Wherever I have been able to find a translation of verses in Dr. Trumpp sA diG rranth, I have given his 4nslatioti as well as my own; for although I believe manyinstances, he has lost the point of the verses, I do not consider myself a sufficiently competent -ority to pronounce that he is wrong, and I leave it thers to decide on this point, and they will, at all ats, have both versions before them, and can selectS hthey prefer. All I would add on the subject is fe Pintiat Nihil Chand, of Lahore, by whom 1have a most materially aided in this work, and with whom ad it inost carefully through, considered mine to be ihore correct. 1am certain there are many errors, or if not errors, 3A st dirferences of opinion, in the way of rendering a aber of the passages; I hope that these may be fully ted out, and, in bringing out the second edition, y(XX isideration shall be paid to all suggestions made be #y of criticism. I do not ask to be spared, for objclfet is to present a really useful and correct .
