For the ambassador’s ride, a horse equipped with a heavy harness was sent to the garden gate, while for the noblemen of the ambassador around twenty saddled horses were dispatched to the garden gate. Embarked on the chief treasurer’s caique powered with seven oarsmen, the ambassador and his noblemen came by the pier where they mounted the horses present there. As it was past six o’clock, they entered the agha’s house that was located below the Valide Han and above Boyacılar quarter.Outside the [reception] room’s door overlooking the garden, some aghas from among the vizier household were standing, wearing sable furs on ceremonial cloaks. Flower and fruit were placed on the passageway leading to the room. Mirrors, three jeweled swords, and a machete were hanging in places on the walls of the room. On the right-hand side of the corner facing the garden, two covers were spread over a cushion for the ambassador. After the ambassador had sat down there, the chief steward, wearing a sable fur on a green broadcloth cloak, came inside the room together with the chief of the scribes.Upon their entry to the room, the ambassador rose to his feet and the chief steward sat on his seat. The chief of the scribes sat on his left-hand side. After sweets and coffee had been served, some conversation took place. Afterwards, the party moved to the fountained pavilion in the lower garden where vocalists and musicians performed. Thereafter, they returned again to the upper room where they sat down for a meal. The chief steward, the chief of the scribes, and Dürrī ate together. After the meal, gifts were presented as recorded below, after which the ambassador left. His noblemen was also served a meal according to the custom.Upon their entry to the room, the ambassador rose to his feet and the chief steward sat on his seat.
