Like warriors they charge,
    like soldiers they scale the wall.
They march each on his way,
    they do not swerve[a] from their paths.
They do not jostle one another,
    each marches in his path;
they burst through the weapons
    and are not halted.
They leap upon the city,
    they run upon the walls;
they climb up into the houses,
    they enter through the windows like a thief.
