"The dying Tartars, stunned and stupefied by the immensity of the disaster brought about by the disease, and realizing that they
had no hope of escape, lost interest in the siege. But they ordered corpses to be placed in catapults and lobbed into the city in the hope that the intolerable stench would kill everyone inside.
