“ Have you given the horse its strength or clothed its neck with a flowing mane?Did you give it the ability to leap like a locust? Its majestic snorting is terrifying!It paws the earth and rejoices in its strength when it charges out to battle.It laughs at fear and is unafraid. It does not run from the sword.The arrows rattle against it, and the spear and javelin flash.It paws the ground fiercely and rushes forward into battle when the ram’s horn blows.It snorts at the sound of the horn. It senses the battle in the distance. It quivers at the captain’s commands and the noise of battle.
