As his guide rest against the shoulder and head of Belisarius, we can see a snake wrapped around left leg of the boy hanging downwards; as Belisarius walks by the shoreline using his walking stick to guide him through the rough terrain, déi op der lénker a rietser Säit Planzen um Féiss huet, souwéi e puer Fielsen.
Am Hannergrond gesi mer e Gebai op der anerer Säit vum Floss tëscht e puer Beem a virun enger Biergkette; souwéi e Geflüster vu Wolleken um Himmel.
