In translation, the text below reads: "According to eye witnesses, our cossacks accomplish marvels of bravery. When they catch a sign of enemy outnumbered by more than thirty soldiers, four or five of our dare-devils instantly attack. Enemies get confused, while our cossacks attack with swords and spears, bringing heavy losses. At times, a handful of cossacks sent squadrons running away."
