The Armies of Chin and Khavar March

From A6.18, Fereydoon Answers His Sons. It illustrates A6.18.86–90:

• A6.18.86
  They sent their horsemen racing from the court;From Chin and Khavar troops came in support.
• A6.18.87
  The whole land rang with talk of their array;From every quarter people turned their way.
• A6.18.88
  Their army stretched beyond all measured bound;No eye could find its limit on the ground.
• A6.18.89
  Toward Iran the two great armies passed,In jowshans, helms that hid each rider fast.
• A6.18.90
  With massive elephants and treasure spread,The two blood-spillers marched with vengeance fed.
