Firstly, both texts discuss the expected values of two kinds of ship. The cargo hulks can flounder through the waves and “the howling changeling of the Horn, shrouds under full stress bulging”.

One part of the hippo's back has the outline of what looks like flowers in the blue copper salt decoration. The description of the piece informs that this type of sculpture was often mass-produced and placed in tombs as a reminder of the Egyptians' love of hunting. However, the legs of the hippos were broken to ensure they would be no threat in the afterlife. Apparently, herds of hippos were damaging to farmers' fields. The hippos became associated with chaos and the hunt for hippos became a metaphor for how the pharaohs could conquer evil.
Romanus, prepared with the tools needed for an exorcism, tamed the dragon by making the sign of the cross. He led the dragon to the village on a leash made from his own priestly clothes and burned the dragon at the stake. The head and neck were cut off and mounted on the town wall.
