XXVIII

At this time the whole country of Comani which was in alliance with the

country of Muzri, all their people assembled and arose to do battle and

make war. By means of my valiant servants I fought with 20,000 of their

numerous troops in the country of Tala, and I defeated them; their mighty

mass broke in pieces; as far as the country of Kharutsa, belonging to

Muzri, I smote them and pursued; the ranks of their troops on the heights

of the mountains I cut down _like grass_; their carcasses covered the

valleys and the tops of the mountains; their great castles I took, I burnt

with fire, I destroyed, and overthrew into heaps and mounds.
