Gurdiyeh Breaks into the Council

From E5.24, Bahram Chubin Reveals His Ambition. It illustrates E5.24.28–38:

E5.24.28
Behind the chamber veil, concealed from eyes,There dwelt his sister, prudent, brave, and wise:
E5.24.29
Fair Gurdiyeh, endowed with noble grace,Whom Bahram cherished for her mind and face.
E5.24.30
When from behind the veil she heard his speech,Her anger flared beyond the bounds of reach.
E5.24.31
She joined the council, tears upon her cheek,Her tongue like arrows, sharpened now to speak.
E5.24.32
Her cheeks were gold with grief, her heart distressed;Old words and grievances weighed on her breast.
E5.24.33
Her brother, when he heard her voice, grew still;No answer rose against her forceful will.
E5.24.34
The Iranians, too, were silent in that place,For fear of harm was written on each face.
E5.24.35
Then Gurdiyeh addressed the warrior train:“Illustrious men, why hold your tongues in chain?
E5.24.36
You seek for guidance, yet your lips are sealed;Why must your anger still be kept concealed?
E5.24.37
You are Iran’s great chieftains, brave and wise,The foremost lords beneath the turning skies.
E5.24.38
What do you see within this bloody game?What course can save your honor and your name?”
