“Send forth ten thousand men” he cried,

“Let brawny arms be stoutly plied,

And, smoothing all with skilful care,

The road for Kośal's king prepare.

Then o'er the earth let thousands throw

Fresh showers of water cool as snow,

And others strew with garlands gay

With loveliest blooms our monarch's way.

On tower and temple porch and gate

Let banners wave in royal state,
