Great Kaan was sending a great army to reinforce his
son, judged that it was time to be off; so he called his
host to saddle and mounted his horse at dawn, and away
they set on their return to their own country. And
when the Great Kaan's son and the grandson of Prester
John saw that King Caidu had retired with all his host,
they let them go unpursued, for they were themselves
sorely fatigued and needed rest. So King Caidu and
his host rode and rode, till they came to their own realm
of Great Turkey and to Samarcand; and there they
abode a long while without again making war.³
