Again Tars Tarkas ordered the charge, and once more the mighty thoats bore their terrible riders against the ramparts of the enemy. At the same moment the battle line of Helium surged over the opposite breastworks of the Zodangans and in another moment they were being crushed as between two millstones. Nobly they fought, but in vain.
The plain before the city became a veritable shambles ere the last Zodangan surrendered, but finally the carnage ceased, the prisoners were marched back to Helium, and we entered the greater city's gates, a huge triumphal procession of conquering heroes.
The broad avenues were lined with women and children (вдоль широких улиц стояли женщины и дети), among which the few men were (среди которых было несколько мужчин) whose duties necessitated that they remain within the city during the battle (обязанности которых вынуждали их оставаться внутри города во время битвы). We were greeted with an endless round of applause (нас встречали нескончаемыми взрывами аплодисментов;
My fierce Tharks caused the wildest excitement and enthusiasm (мои свирепые тарки вызвали чрезвычайное возбуждение и бурный восторг;

The broad avenues were lined with women and children, among which were the few men whose duties necessitated that they remain within the city during the battle. We were greeted with an endless round of applause and showered with ornaments of gold, platinum, silver, and precious jewels. The city had gone mad with joy.
