Rostam Storms from the Court

From B9.26, Kavus Dispatches Rostam to Sistan. It illustrates B9.26.1–12 (to B9.26.14):

B9.26.1
Then Kay Kavus, in wrath, with blazing eyes,Turned fiercely on Rostam with bitter cries.
B9.26.2
“The truth stands plain at last for all to see;No longer can this matter hidden be.
B9.26.3
You set this counsel firmly in his head,And tore revenge out by the root instead.
B9.26.4
You sought your own ease, not the royal gain,Nor crown, nor throne, nor seal of Iran’s reign.
B9.26.5
Remain here now; no more shall you command;Let Tus now lead the forces of the land.
B9.26.6
A swift courier to Balkh I now shall send,With bitter words within the letter penned.
B9.26.7
If Siavash will not obey my call,Let him yield up the army, men and all.
B9.26.8
Let Tus command; let Siavash return,With chosen men, and what awaits him learn.
B9.26.9
Then let the prince before my throne appear,And see from me what treatment fits him here.
B9.26.10
No longer shall I call you friend of mine,Nor ask you now to lead my battle line.”
B9.26.11
Then Rostam cried, his anger fierce and high:“If Tus is Rostam in your royal eye,
B9.26.12
Then count me vanished from the world of men,And reckon Rostam dead among you then.”
