The Chieftains Rebuke the Pleasure-Loving Shah

From D10.19, The Khan of Chin Invades Iran. It illustrates D10.19.9–17:

D10.19.9
Then all the chieftains, gathered from the land,Came full of wrath before Bahram’s command.
D10.19.10
With rage and bitterness they bluntly cried,“Your glorious Fortune turns its face aside.
D10.19.11
The heads of kings should be intent on war;Your heart seeks feast and chase forevermore.
D10.19.12
The crown and throne are worthless in your eyes;Iran, the troops, and treasure you despise.”
D10.19.13
The ruler answered those who showed the way,The Mobadan gathered round in dismay:
D10.19.14
“My helper is Yazdan whose hand has wroughtThe world, more wise than all the sages taught.
D10.19.15
By that great Sovereign’s power, I shall holdIran secure against the wolves grown bold.
D10.19.16
With Fortune, troops, the sword, and wealth to spend,I will bring this land’s suffering to an end.”
D10.19.17
He went on with his sport; the nobles wept,Their eyes ran blood while he his pleasures kept.
