"Now Zinon rode forward to the centre of the
field of battle and he held aloft his sword and he cried saying “Oh God of
Heaven, Oh God of Earth, bless thy people that we may be victorious on this
day, that we may have our Religion restored and our Freedom restored. For we fight for thee, we fight for the
Religion that you have given us and we fight so the honour may be yours” Now as
Zinon was doing this, the leader of the armies of Rendanoneck rode forward and
he came unto Zinon and he rode unto the side of Zinon and he mocked Zinon and
told him that he would feast upon the flesh of his children and ravish his wife
when the battle was won.
And Zinon said unto Aktar the captain of
the armies of Rendanoneck. “We do not fight for your land. We do not
fight for your possessions. We do not even fight for the temples you
have taken from us. We do not fight you for the places of
worship of which you have robbed us. We do not fight for any of the earthly
gifts that you have. We fight for the freedom to worship we fight for
the freedom to pray and we fight for our God and we fight for our Religion”
