What evil omen could all these 
strange scattered incidents portend?
أي شؤم تنذر به كلّ هذه الحوادث الغريبة المتفرقة؟
Welch böses Omen könnten
all diese seltsamen Vorfälle bedeuten?
Ces monstruosités apparaissent donc
un peu partout.
Di quale sventura sono il presagio
questi strani incidenti sparsi in tutto il regno?
Que agouro maligno pressagiam
todos esses incidentes?
