¹⁵ So that hearts may melt with fear^(A)
    and the fallen be many,
I have stationed the sword for slaughter^[a]
    at all their gates.
Look! It is forged to strike like lightning,
    it is grasped for slaughter.^(B)

¹⁶ Slash to the right, you sword,
    then to the left,
    wherever your blade is turned.
