another said to his chamberlain you are my eye with which i see and a shield to which i seek refuge. i have placed you at my door so what do you think you will do with my subjects? he said i look at them with your eye and i will treat them according to their status with you and i will place them for you in their delay at your door and their commitment to serving you in the places where they deserve it and i will arrange them where you have placed them and i will inform you well about them and inform them about you.
وقال آخر لحاجبه إنك عيني التي أنظر بها، وجنة أستنيم إليها، وقد وليتك بابي فما تراك صانعا برعيتي؟ قال أنظر إليهم بعينك، وأحملهم على قدر منازلهم عندك، وأضعهم لك في إبطائهم عن بابك ولزومهم خدمتك مواضع استحقاقهم، وأرتبهم حيث وضعهم ترتيبك، وأحسن إبلاغك عنهم وإبلاغهم عنك.
