Zal Offers His Life for Kabul

From A8.13, Sahm Marches on Kabul. It illustrates A8.13.44–48:

A8.13.44
Behold, alive before you here I stand;My living body waits upon your hand.
A8.13.45
Saw me in two across the waist instead;But speak no more of Kabul when I am dead.
A8.13.46
Do anything you wish; command is yours;Whatever harms Kabul, my heart endures.”
A8.13.47
Sahm heard these words, raised ears, and lowered mane;The truth of Zal’s reproach brought inward pain.
A8.13.48
At last he said: “All this you speak is true.From first to last, I have done wrong to you.
