“A bed of a dried-up river, wherein crows (black birds) are feeding.”
It signifies one who will take his course through useless tracks, and by too much trust in others will suffer depletion. Yea, though all has life long he may minister to the wants of others, yet, in his advancing years, he will be abandoned to the mercy of wayfaring and deceitful men. This illustrates virtue misapplied. It as a degree of DECLINE.

“I seem to be above the earth; I sec sun ascending above the horizon, while it is yet dark on that hemisphere towards which it is approaching.”

Kozminsky
“A prisoner having escaped from his prison is endeavoring to break his fetters with the aid”
of some large flinty stones.

Consult the horoscope. It is a symbol of Restraining.
