We immediately entered upon an extensive plain, without cultivation, though the noble trees and luxuriant jungle we had just seen showed the natural capabilities of the soil. From a number of tombs scattered about it seemed probable that some great battle had been fought here. Indeed the whole country I was passing over, bordering upon the successive capitals of Hindostan, during the course of many ages and the shock of various revolutions, might be considered eminently historical, 268 TRAVELS ...IN INDIA A HUNDRED YEARS AGO although the same causes which had reduced its plains to a desert and filled its forests with banditti and wild beasts had nearly effaced all traces of the important events of which it had been the theatre.
At half-past twelve we reached Secundra, once a town of sufficient importance to give its name to the forest we had left, as well as to this division of the country, but now a small village. I stopped here to breakfast and rest a few hours. Though the caravan which had passed had drained the scanty resources of this poor hamlet, my people were satisfied with what they were able to procure.
