यवमोदकयोर्द्वेषस्त्वकस्माच्च न शस्यते ।
A horse suddenly refusing barley and sweets, bleeding from the mouth, or trembling is a bad sign.
क्रीडन्वकैः कपोतैश्च सारिकाभिर्मृतिं वदेत् ।
A horse playing with herons, pigeons or mynas points to death. Tears and foot-licking point to ruin.
वामपादेन च तथा विलिखंश्च वसुंधराम् ।
