If the cow (go) appears weak and dejected, the king will suffer miseries; if it walk striking the ground with its heels, there will be diseases. If the eyes be found full of tears or if it be found to fear its own master or to cry at the sight of thieves, there will be death.
अकारणे क्रोशति चेदनर्थो भयाय रात्रौ वृषभः शिवाय । भृशं निरुद्धा यदि मक्षिकाभिस्तदाआशु वृष्टिं सरमात्मजैर्वा ॥ ९२-०२ ॥
If cows be found to cry when unmolested, there will be ruin; if they cry at night, there will be fear; but if the ox be found to cry at night, there will be good luck. If cows (go) be found to tormented by flies or dogs, there will be immediate rain.
If cows (go), while coming home with the cry of bambha, be found to be in pursuit of bullocks, there will be an increase of cows in the cow-shed. If cows be found wet or with their hair on end or happy, there will be an increase of wealth. The same remarks apply to buffaloes.
