3 in the third year of his reign, he works a banquet to all his governors and his servants; the virtuous of Persia and Maday, the nobles and governors of the jurisdictions at his face;
4 and he shows them the riches of the honor of his sovereigndom and the esteem of the adornment of his greatness many days - even a hundred and eighty days.
