فَظَلَّ طُهَاةُ اللَّحْمِ مِنْ بَيْنِ مُنْضِجٍ صَفِيفَ شِوَاءٍ أَوْ قَدِيرٍ مُعَجَّلِ
Then the meat-cooks were occupied, some preparing pieces of meat for roasting, and others cooking it promptly in a pot.
The scene shifts from pursuit to preparation for a meal. Two cooking methods are contrasted: roasting pieces over a fire and cooking meat in a vessel.
Thus the result of the horse’s performance enters the story. The chase has succeeded, and the quarry now provides food for the company.
