### [68.281](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.adab.basatin-al-uns.68.281)

کأن الریش منه فی سهام علی جسد تجسم من ریاح کأن رؤس أقلام غلاظ مسحن بریش جؤجؤه الصحاح فأقعصها بحجن تحت صفر له فعل الأسنة والرماح

> "As though its feathers were arrows / upon a body embodied from winds;  
> "As though the tips of thick reed-pens had been wiped / upon the sound feathers of its breast;  
> So it dispatched them with curved claws beneath yellow legs, / that perform the deed of spear-heads and lances."
