- Mansion verse
- Building under Horn brings honor and prosperity, fields and wealth from afar, and women into the household. Marriage brings distinguished children; scholars pass the examinations and appear before the ruler. Burial alone should be avoided: pestilence is foretold after three years. Beginning work on a grave site brings immediate misfortune to the head of the household.
