1.  *     Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant?
 
2.  *     Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,
 
3.  *     And send against them swarms of flying creatures,
 
4.  *     Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,
 
5.  *     And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle)?
