By the light of the setting sun we finished it and ere the darkness closed in the Great King's army was destroyed, save for the fugitives whom we hunted down next day.
Yes, in that battle perished ten thousand of the Easterns and their mercenaries, and upon its field at dawn we crowned Peroa Pharaoh of Egypt, and he named me the chief general of his army.

There, too, fell over a thousand of my men and among them those six hunters whom I had won in the wager with the Great King and brought with me from the East.
Throughout the fray they served me as a bodyguard, fighting furiously, who knew that they could hope for no mercy from their own people.

One by one they were slain, the last two of them in the charge at sunset.

Well, they were brave and faithful to me, so peace be on their spirits.

Better to die thus than in the den of lions.
In triumph we returned to Memphis, I bringing in the rear-guard and the spoils.
