Arrows Turn the War Elephants

From E5.11, Bahram Chubin Slays King Saveh. It illustrates E5.11.74–85 (to E5.11.88):

E5.11.74
King Saveh cried, “Bring elephants ahead,And make the field for foes a road of dread.
E5.11.75
Attack in force; drive hard against the foe,And crush their ranks beneath each heavy blow.”
E5.11.76
Bahram from far beheld the beasts appear,And grief and anger struck his heart with fear.
E5.11.77
He drew his sword and called, “Now string your bows,Your bows of Chakh, to meet these mighty foes.
E5.11.78
Put helmets on. By life and royal headOf our great Shah, whose fame is widely spread,
E5.11.79
Let every man with bow and shaft in handDraw tight and hold his station where we stand.
E5.11.80
Let each man lodge three shafts with deadly blowsWithin a trunk, then turn upon the foes.
E5.11.81
Then out with gorzes; press into the fight,And slay your foes beneath victorious light.”
E5.11.82
The chieftain strung his bow and set his helm;The steel casque flashed on him who kept the realm.
E5.11.83
He made his bow a spring-cloud full of rain,And showered arrows thick across the plain.
E5.11.84
The soldiers followed; pointed shafts took flight,And feathered arrows dimmed the stars from sight.
E5.11.85
They pierced the beasts’ trunks, and the stricken groundBecame a pool of blood, with slain around.
