Sketch of the Game of Chess
By Bon Senior Abn Yachia
IN the beginning of the reign, the armies stand before thee.
Thine eyes shall see the King in his glory. Behold, he standeth at the head of all his hosts; he shall cry, yea, he shall shout aloud; he shall do mightily against his enemies, By the strength of his hand and in his power, he is established in his stronghold, the fourth post, which is his place of encampment in the beginning of his reign.
The Queen doth stand at his right hand; he looketh upon her with favor.
Nigh unto them are two Horsemen mounted upon fed horses; at their right and at their left is an Elephant, and a War-car on either side.
