قال انه يقول انها بقرة لا ذلول تثير الارض ولا تسقي الحرث مسلمة لا شية فيها قالوا الان جئت بالحق فذبحوها وما كادوا يفعلون

He said: "He says: a heifer Not trained to till the soil Or water the fields: sound And without blemish." They said: "Now hast thou brought The truth." Then they offered Her in sacrifice, But not with good-will.
