Rostam Leaps From Wounded Rakhsh

From C8.23, Rostam Flees to the Heights. It illustrates C8.23.7–14:

C8.23.7
When shafts flew from Esfandiyar’s strong bow,Both Rostam and great Rakhsh received the blow.
C8.23.8
The prince rode round him; Rostam’s arrows flew,But none could pierce that body through and through.
C8.23.9
Each shaft the prince released left Rostam sore;His own shafts failed; he could withstand no more.
C8.23.10
Bewildered at such fighting, Rostam cried,“Esfandiyar has brass for flesh and hide!”
C8.23.11
When Rakhsh grew weak, the arrows lodged in him,And horse and rider bled from every limb,
C8.23.12
The rider, swift as wind, sprang from his steed,And turned toward the heights in bitter need.
C8.23.13
Then wounded Rakhsh went homeward on his own,And left his master on the height alone.
C8.23.14
Blood poured from Rostam’s body like a tide;As if Mount Bistoon shook, its strength denied.
