Chapter 86

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 was the first star,

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.
