The wronged received redress. Here, in his coat of mail of steel, Timur, 'midst his sepoys, From Russ, and France, and far Castille, Received the Grand Envoys Six grandsons of the Great Amir Wed brides of princely rank, Nine times the brides their dresses change, Nine times their handmaids thank. 19 Each time each bride is fresh arrayed, Fall to the ground in showers Rubies and diamonds, which the maid Keeps as her bridal flowers ! I see Timiir, one boot, one glove, And with his lint-white hair..., * Delighted on his chess-board move Fifty-six pieces fair. The blood-red ruby in his ear Trembles before my view, But when his rage the stone shakes there, 'Fore God ! the world shakes too. At last the Mogul Emperor Invades far-off Cathay, He starts, the tired conqueror, Marching ten miles a day, Crosses Syr-Daria's solid stream, And stops at Otrar, when He sees the blade of Azrael gleam At three-score years and ten. Come with me to the Gur-Amir, Within whose simple walls Over a six-foot block of jade A horsehair standard falls.
