In my dream, behold, I stood upon Joseph, Me somniante ecce, stabam (continued)

18. And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
18. Et ecce, e flumine ascendebant septem vaccae pingues carne, et pulchrae forma, et pascebant in carecto.
19. And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
19. Ecce vero septem vaccae aliae ascendebant post eas tenues, et turpes forma valde, et tenues carne: non vidi similes illis in tota terra Aegypti in turpitudine.
20. And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:
20. Et comederunt vaccae tenues et turpes, septem vaccas priores pingues.
21. And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
21. Et venerunt ad interiora earum, et non est cognitum quod venissent ad interiora earum: et aspectus earum turpis, quemadmodum in principio: et expergefactus sum.
22. And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:
22. Vidi praeterea dum somniarem, et ecce, septem spicae ascendebant in culmo uno plenae et pulchrae.
23. And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
23. Et ecce item septem spicae parvae et tenues, percussae Euro germinabant post eas.
24. And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.
24. Et deglutiverunt spicae tenues, septem spicas pulchras. Et dixi ad magos, et non fuit qui indicaret mihi.
