From C8.27, Rostam Shoots Esfandiyar in the Eyes. It illustrates C8.27.27–37:

C8.27.27
On foot they hurried from the troops in grief,And ran together to the wounded chief.
C8.27.28
They saw the warrior’s chest all stained with gore;His hand the bloodied shaft that struck him bore.
C8.27.29
Then Bishutan cast dust upon his head,And tore his robe, with cries for one near dead.
C8.27.30
Bahman rolled in the dust; his face he laidIn warm blood, weeping as the farr would fade.
C8.27.31
Then Bishutan said, “What great man can findThe world’s deep secret, what religious mind?
C8.27.32
For Faith he drew the scimitar of wrath,With valor as he trod the vengeful path.
C8.27.33
He swept idolatry from every land,And never raised a tyrant’s heavy hand.
C8.27.34
Yet in his youth destruction struck him down;Dust took the head that used to wear the crown.
C8.27.35
The wicked man who makes the whole world ache,And causes noble souls to grieve and break,
C8.27.36
Lives long, while year on year he passes through,And never knows the harm that battles do.”
C8.27.37
The two youths cradled him with grieving care,And wiped the blood that stained his face and hair.
