->''"As historical badasses go, they don't get much more badass than Genghis Khan. The Mongolian warlord's story is full of revenge, crazy adventures and enormously bloody battles. Hell, he was still commanding armies at the age of 72 (and this was in 1227, so that's like being 150 today, you know, after inflation) if you believe some of the records, anyway. We're talking about a badass for the ages."''

->''"Heaven is weary of the luxury of China. I shall remain in the wilderness of the north. I shall return to simplicity and moderations once again. As for the clothes I wear and the food I eat, I shall have the same as cowherds and grooms and I shall treat my soldiers as brothers. In a hundred battles I have been at the forefront and within seven years I have performed a great work, for in six directions of space all things are subject to one ruler."''

->''"At Sarai, in the land of Tartary,\\
There dwelt a king who warred on Russia, he,\\
Whereby there died full many a doughty man.\\
This noble king was known as Cambinskan,\\
Who in his time was of so great renown\\
That there was nowhere in the wide world known\\
So excellent a lord in everything;\\
He lacked in naught belonging to a king.\\
As for the faith to which he had been born,\\
He kept its law to which he had been sworn;\\
And therewith he was hardy, rich, and wise,\\
And merciful and just in all men's eyes,\\
True to his word, benign and honourable,\\
And in his heart like any center stable;\\
Young, fresh, and strong, in warfare ambitious\\
As any bachelor knight of all his house.\\
Of handsome person, he was fortunate,\\
And kept always so well his royal state\\
That there was nowhere such another man.\\
This noble king, this Tartar Cambinskan."''

->''Blessed by the eternal sky,\\
Born of the steppe,\\
Everywhere in blue-skied Mongolia,\\
His name resounds in the world,\\
\\
The courageous Mongol Genghis,\\
The sublime lord Genghis.\\
\\
Even in burning wounds,\\
A mind strong as steel,\\
Like temporal swords,\\
As powerful as a planetary bird,\\
\\
The courageous Mongol Genghis,\\
The sublime lord Genghis.\\
\\
Blessed by the sky above,\\
Possessed half the world,\\
Engrained is his spirit,\\
In the majestic and mighty world.\\
\\
The courageous Mongol Genghis,\\
The sublime lord Genghis.''
