It laughs at fear and is afraid of nothing; it does not run away from the sword.
The ostrich is cruel to its young, as if they were not even its own. It does not care that its work is for nothing,
But when the ostrich gets up to run, it is so fast that it laughs at the horse and its rider.
It paws wildly, enjoying its strength, and charges into battle.
The bag of arrows rattles against the horse’s side, along with the flashing spears and swords.
Nothing else on earth is equal to it; it is a creature without fear.
Hear the sound of whips and the noise of the wheels. Hear horses galloping and chariots bouncing along!
