About the Book

The Prince had a bullock cart of silver and gold, with seats in it, and even a spring, which, considering everything, was an immense concession for the Barodians to make, even to royalty. All was thus ready very early; but, unfortunately, the Prince was not very punctual, and the sun had risen some height in the heavens— a condition almost fatal to the skill of the cheetah—when he arrived. Once there, a start was quickly made; and then, behold the following procession: A pilot cart with three enthusiastic sportsmen in it, kneeling; the Prince's wagon, containing his Royal Highness and the Duke of Sutherland, each in Indian hunting costume, namely, the huge sun. hat, tweed coat, and white trousers, each person carrying a rifle and a hunting knife; five carts with cheetahs, each sentinel attended by three keepers; and about twenty small wagons, their occupants in almost every conceivable position compatible with the arrangement of three stout men on a square yard of cushion in a Springless vehicle passing over rough ground. The place was on fete for the Prince's reception; his Royal Highness was expected to drive thither from the Residency very shortly, and not only the hall of state, but all the apartments were prepared. I have already spoken of the golden howdah, the golden carriage, and the golden bullockgharry of Baroda. You have heard of the diamond aigrette which adorns the Guioowar's turban, and the diamond necklace which encircles his neck. Be prepared, then, for plenty of magnificence on entering Motee Bagh. Yet look at the same time for the tawdry and tinsel. You will not be disappointed in either. India everywhere presents the same spectacle, and Motee Bagh is no exception to the rule.
