I praise that killer's pride: so many angels crowd around
his martyr's bier that no one can find room to pray over it.
Explanation: The martyr's holiness draws such a throng of angels to his funeral that the living cannot perform the prayer over his body, a hyperbole honoring both the slain and the beloved who slew him.
