      and they toppled their whole work and they levelled it so that all was the same with the other ground, and all of the giants that were on top working in a great hurry, they fell to the ground and died, so that none was left alive, and the blood came out of them, and it scattered along the ground, and it was moving as if alive, and it was revolving in the dust of the ground

      And so we must destroy them, and to forcibly ruin them, and to throw them out of the land, and to disinherit them, and raze the towers and the walls, and burn and topple the palaces and the houses, and to humble the whole city, because that was promised to us by the gods, and they granted this to us, and they assured us fortune on this
