| | Shiz, Beheading of - SHIELDS |
 | | Those who are fond of finding fault with the Book of Mormon, and they are many, are disposed to ridicule some of the incidents therein given, connected with the death of Shiz, the rival of Coriantumr for the supreme rulership of the Jaredite race during the last days of that degenerate people. |
 | | The war, which at its commencement found the Jaredites a nation many million strong, was carried on with such relentless ferocity, that, at its close, the two contending monarchs, Shiz and Coriantumr, alone remained. |
 | | And it came to pass that after he had smote off the head of Shiz that Shiz raised upon his hands and fell; and after he had struggled for breath he died. |
