Tus, Giv and Rohham Ringed by Night

From B13.14, The Iranians Make a Night-Attack, Tus, Giv, Rohham Are Surrounded but Are Saved. It illustrates B13.14.27–38 (to B13.14.43):

B13.14.27
The karnay rang; the ranks pressed on ahead,And ringed the horsemen, filling them with dread.
B13.14.28
Iran’s riders, raging lions, stood at bay,While foes closed round, and none could break away.
B13.14.29
Sparks flashed from helm and sword through murky air;It seemed the clouds rained heavy gorz everywhere.
B13.14.30
Night, dust, and scimitars concealed the light,No star was seen; the moon was veiled from sight.
B13.14.31
It seemed a wall of jowshan hemmed them round,A sea of pitch had swallowed sky and ground.
B13.14.32
Then Houman cried: “Bring chiefs as captives; striveTo let no arrow wound them; take them alive.”
B13.14.33
They shouted back: “Their hands we bind, or allBeneath our gopal and our zhupin fall.
B13.14.34
Crown every chief of Iran with blood-red gore;Let blood become the crown that each one wore.”
B13.14.35
Then Tus said to Rohham and Giv: “Our livesAre lost unless Yazdan our strength revives,
B13.14.36
And frees both soul and body from this net,And guards us from the ruin round us set.
B13.14.37
We hang like prey within an eagle’s clutch,Or sink beneath the sea beyond all touch.”
B13.14.38
Like savage lions springing to the fray,They charged together, sweeping foes away.
