Numan's Raiders Sweep Toward Tisfoon

From D9.9, Bahram Goor Marches to Claim the Throne. It illustrates D9.9.27–31:

D9.9.27
Numan assembled men with spear and blade,A mighty army, ready for the raid.
D9.9.28
He bade them raid and trample through the land,While terror spread before their armed command.
D9.9.29
Toward Tisfoon the salt flats shook with sound,Beneath the pounding hooves that struck the ground.
D9.9.30
The women and the children captive fell;No helper came to ease their living hell.
D9.9.31
The world was filled with harrying and flame,For now the throne held power only in name.
