CHAPTER VII. ASSASSINATION OF RAO RAN MAL AND MAHARANA'S OCCUPATION OF MARWAR.

Finding shelter nowhere, they came and threw them- selves at the feet of the Maharana and sued for mercy. The Maharana, with his usual magnanimity, pardoned them and took them into his service. Rao Ran Mal disapproved of this clemency, but said nothing. ¹ The success which Ráo Ran Mal had achieved in killing the assassins of Mokal, and crushing the power and capturing the person of the King of Malwa had raised the influence and power of the Ráo to a pinnacle whence he exercised undisputed ¹ Vir Vinod, Vol. I, p. 320-21. 58
