84 And it came to pass that they did gather together all the people upon all the face of the land which had not been slain, save it were Ether.
85 And it came to pass that Ether did behold all the doings of the people; And he beheld that the people which were for Coriantumr were gathered together to the army of Coriantumr, And the people which were for Shiz were gathered together to the army of Shiz;
86 Wherefore, they were for the space of four years gathering together the people that they might get all which were upon the face of the land, And that they might receive all the strength which it was possible that they could receive.
87 And it came to pass that when they were all gathered together, everyone to the army which he would, with their wives and their children - Both men, women and children being armed with weapons of war, Having shields and breastplates and headplates, And being clothed after the manner of war - They did march forth one against another to battle; And they fought all that day and conquered not.

91 And it came to pass that Coriantumr wrote again an epistle unto Shiz, desiring that he would not come again to battle, But that he would take the kingdom and spare the lives of the people;

93 And it came to pass that they fought all that day, And when the night came, they slept upon their swords; And on the morrow they fought even until the night came,
94 And when the night came, they were drunken with anger, even as a man which is drunken with wine; And they slept again upon their swords; And on the morrow they fought again,
