He rode toward her, leaving all his men;She saw that he was quite alone, and then

Beneath her sable helm she showed her face,And spoke with royal courage, scorn, and grace.

E6.42.39
He was both mother and a father dear;His days are ended; now I face you here.
E6.42.40
Now I shall test you; let our weapons showIf I am fit to wed, and you shall know.”

She spurred her battle-steed; her lance struck true,And then it pierced his jowshan through and through:
E6.42.42
She hurled him from his saddle to the plain,A lifeless corpse among the desert train!
