As he who with attentive ear

awaits the crier’s voice to hear

announced that fasting days expire

So sits Shah with keen desire

His eager eyes incessant roam

Towards the portals of your dome

Gheti afroz said let him come with all possible speed Melech Mahommed instantly returned to the court of the Shah and reported that his presence was [expitched?] anu Shah ordered his drums to beat and trumpets to play and his army to assemble. He then dressed himself in the [sabif?] of a cavalier and ordered his [harsemer?] to blow their bugles

So loud the shrilling bugles play

That hearts of warriors melt away

By brazen drums resounding hoarse

The sun is startled in his course

The Marshals in every street arranged the army numerous as the waves of the ocean and when the whole was compleated the Shah mounted on horseback A poet thus described his steed,

On a course swift and strong

He like a tempest rushed along

Swift as the breeze the fiery horse

Yet smooth as water in its course
