The servants did as he commanded, whereupon the other king's sons all fled upon their mules. - Sa2 13:30. But whilst they were on the road, the report of what Absalom had done reached the ears of the king, and, as generally happens in such cases, with very great exaggeration: "Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left." 2 Kings (2 Samuel) 13:31
