The Horsemen Turn Back from the King

From E7.11, Shiruyeh Sends Khosrow to Tisfoon. It illustrates E7.11.31–42:

E7.11.31
The gardener answered, “In the garden’s shade,A man in jowshan sits there, fearless, staid.
E7.11.32
He holds a bow, a tall and royal sight;His spring-bright cheeks make all the garden bright.
E7.11.33
His jowshan shines like sun across the field;A branch above him bears his golden shield.
E7.11.34
Before him stood a servant, girdle bound,Who cut this piece with gems set all around.
E7.11.35
He handed it to me and bade me goTo market for bread and meat, avoiding show.
E7.11.36
Swift as the wind, I left him there just now.”Shiruyeh knew Khosrow by that shape and brow.
E7.11.37
He sent three hundred horsemen out in force,Who raced toward the garden on their course.
E7.11.38
When Khosrow saw them coming from afar,He paled and drew his keen-edged scimitar.
E7.11.39
But when they saw the king of kings arrayedIn jowshan, back they turned, in tears, dismayed.
E7.11.40
They went to Zad Farrokh and said in shame:“We are but slaves; he bears the royal name.
E7.11.41
He is Khosrow Parviz, our rightful king,Whom this black day has stripped of everything.
E7.11.42
No man in garden or in battle-frayWould dare affront him in the slightest way.”
