“Women of note⟳ trauell vpon Coozelbash-camels, each Camell loaded with two cages (or cajuaes as they call⟳ them) which hang⟳ on either side the beast.”

“For the carriage of sick the camel is fairly well suited, the main difficulty being the kujawah, cradle or chair, the correct⟳ shape⟳, size and weight of which can only be decided by actual experiment⟳ in hills as well as plains and under varying conditions.”

“For men and women who suffer⟳ from being in the saddle for so many hours, there is a choice between the "kerjava" and the "takht-i-rawan." The kerjava, in its best appearance, takes the form⟳ of two very small gypsy tents made of light⟳ bands of wood, the top bent circular, and covered with shawls or carpets. In each of these tents a man or woman sits after the kerjavas have⟳ been slung, like⟳ panniers, across the saddle of a strong mule. In the kerjava one must sit⟳ cross-legged, or with one's feet hanging out.”
