D6.7.6
Ardeshir reached the water, raised his prayer:“O Helper, You have saved me from his snare.
D6.7.7
You kept me safe from that man’s wicked hand;May he find nothing good in all the land.”
D6.7.8
He rested, called the boatman, then beganTo tell his past to that seafaring man.
D6.7.9
The wise old sailor looked upon his guest,His stature and his features and his chest.
D6.7.10
He knew the youth was of Kayanian line,And joyed to see his farr and splendor shine.
D6.7.11
He hurried to the water, took command,And sent his boats toward every distant strand.
D6.7.12
At famed Ardeshir’s name, along that shore,An army gathered, swelling more and more.
