1 Maccabees 6:38-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁸ And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof.

³⁹ Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold, and of brass, the mountains glittered therewith, and they shone like lamps of fire.

⁴⁰ And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly.
