Text translationEnglish translation of the text
There was great heat that year [6732] and many of the forests and mudflats burst into flames, and the smoke was heavy, unlike anything people had seen at that time. They were like fog that clung to the earth, so that the birds could not fly in the air, but fell to the ground and died.
