page 143 note 1 We see no reason, à propos, why Father Heras should accept the assertion of Couto and Faria y Sousa that Kama was then in his 96th year in the face of the much more moderate statements of Firishtah and the Burhān-i-Ma'āṣir, especially as he is thus compelled to ascribe a correspondingly advanced age to Tirumala on his accession.
