Cows went into the cowshed, horses into the stall; the wild beasts looked on. The banners of peoples were longed for but not obtained.

The cows had lain down in their stalls; the wild beasts had retreated (to their lairs); the senses of men were at rest; when the unseen (venomous creatures) anointed me (with their venom).

The cows had settled in their stalls, the beasts of prey had sought their lairs, Extinguished were the lights of men, when things unseen infected me.
