The Khan's Envoys Lay Their Gifts

From E1.8, The Khan Proposes Alliance by Marriage. It illustrates E1.8.39–44:

E1.8.39
The three wise men of rank approached the hall,And bowed before the Shah, observed by all.
E1.8.40
A gem-encrusted crown the envoys bore,With torques and armlets from the Khan’s own store;
E1.8.41
Full thirty thousand golden coins they laid,With silks of Chin in dazzling sheen displayed.
E1.8.42
They laid them as a gift before the king,With all the wealth that loyal envoys bring.
E1.8.43
Gold, silver, and brocades from Chin’s far homeMade earth seem brighter than the sky’s blue dome.
E1.8.44
When all the envoys had been duly seated,Their native words of blessing were repeated.
