The shields of the soldiers are red.
    The army is dressed in red.
The metal on the chariots flashes
    when they are ready to attack.
    Their horses are excited.
The chariots race through the streets.
    They rush back and forth through the city squares.
They look like torches.
    They run like lightning.

He[a] calls his officers.
    But they fall down on the way.
They hurry to the city wall.
    The shield is put into place.
