Siavash Chooses the Site for a City

From B9.38, Afrasiab Grants Siavash a Province. It illustrates B9.38.37–43:

B9.38.37
One day they reached a fertile, favored ground,A place of beauty, rich with promise round.
B9.38.38
One side a mountain rose, one met the sea;A hunting plain stretched broad and fair and free.
B9.38.39
With streams and groves where running waters sprung,A place whose freshness made the old heart young.
B9.38.40
Siavash turned to Piran and then said:“Behold what blessed land before us spread.
B9.38.41
Here will I make a city broad and bright,A place to fill the heart with fresh delight.
B9.38.42
With gardens, palaces, and courts arrayed,A spacious city beautifully made.
B9.38.43
A royal seat shall rise toward the moon,Fit for the crown and throne I shall assume.”
