bersalahan sebab tiada berbuat kabaktian kapada Allah taʿala; angin pun korang
ada-nya.
Dan jikalau tahun itu Dal akhir, benatang-nya rusa, laksana terlalu panas, hujan
pun sadikit-sadikit, huma ladang pun jadi, tetapi banyak orang di-kuto’ki Allah
taʿala sebab tiada berkabenaran; itulah ada-nya: wa’llahu aʿlam.
There appears to be another version of this Cycle, in which the years are
symbolised by different animals, viz.:—
Alif by the Buffalo (?), Ha by the Buffalo or Bullock, Jim by the Tiger and the
Dog, Zei by the Mouse-deer and the Pig, Dal awal by the Crocodile and the
Dragon (naga), Ba by the Dragon and the Lion, Wau by the Horse and the Hawk
(hĕlang), and Dal akhir by the Flying-fox (kubong) and the Dog.
