[1]Again I looked attentively,ⓘ while sleeping, and surveyed heaven above. [2]And behold a single star fell from heaven. [3]Which being raised up, ate and fed among those cows. [4]After that I perceived other large and black cows; and behold all of them changed their stalls and pastures, while their young began to lament one with another. Again I looked in my vision, and surveyed heaven; when behold I saw many stars which descended, and projected themselves from heaven to where the first star was, [5]Into the midst of those young ones; while the cows were with them, feeding in the midst of them. [6]I looked at and observed them; when behold, they all acted after the manner of horses, and began to approach the young cows, all of whom became pregnant, and brought forth elephants, camels, and asses. [7]At these all the cows were alarmed and terrified; when they began biting with their teeth, swallowing, and striking with their horns. [8]They began also to devour the cows; and behold all the children of the earth trembled, shook with terror at them, and suddenly fled away.
