10 And when word was brought unto Wudro concerning these things and how Willi did set his warning at naught, making mock of his threats, then was he very wroth, and he cried out in the violence of his anger, saying, Am I, then, Job, that be born again, to be tormented thus?

11 And he straightway called the people unto him, and he spake unto them. And after he had told them everything, he said unto them, Is it, therefore, a matter for war? And they answered him with a mighty voice, saying, It is a matter for war.

12 And when Willi heard what was come to pass, he was amazed, and his knees, they did tremble beneath him. And he commanded his servants that they should bring unto him the brazen mask, being part of the royal attire; and he did put it on.

13 And after that it was on, he did raise his voice on high, and he spake, saying,

14 What of the land of Amer? And what of it? Verily, a pin that lieth in the way, it is of more account than a spike that lifteth its head at a distance.

15 And the iron heel of Hu, it levelleth all things; neither shall any man dare to withstand it.

16 And when he had finished speaking, he sent out messengers unto the four corners of the earth, instructing them that they should tell these things unto all people, for he was a boastful fellow and a braggart, for ever holding forth in large manner for to be heard of all the world.

17 Now Wudro, the son of Wyl, after that he had made him war, he cried not out from the housetops what things he would do, but he gat him about it for to do them.

18 And he opened wide the strings of his purse so that the shekels, they gushed forth as the waters of a brook after rain.

19 And he sent much munition of war unto them that were with him, and he commanded his physicians that they should go out for to succour the wounded.
