It paws the ground in the valley, exulting mightily, it goes out to meet the weapons.
It laughs at fear and is not dismayed; it does not shy away from the sword.

In excitement and impatience it consumes the ground; it cannot stand still when the trumpet is blown.
At the sound of the trumpet, it says,‘Aha!’ And from a distance it catches the scent of battle, the thunderous shouting of commanders, and the battle cries.
“Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars, and spreads its wings toward the south?
Is it at your command that the eagle soars, and builds its nest on high?
