PART OF THE FORT BUILT BY THE EMPEROR SHERE SHAH, AT DELHI.
Shere Shah's Fort, as it is generally called, is remarkable for the strength of its walls; within which there are the remains of a large mosque of excellent workmanship with many other buildings, but the whole are very much in ruins. It is situated without the walls of Shah Jehanabad, or modern Delhi, which is the third city of that name; the most ancient occupied a rising ground about twelve miles S. W. from the present city; the second, as well as the last, is on the S. W. banks of the river Jumma.
