“And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:”
After them, seven other cows came up — scrawny and very ugly and lean. I had never seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt. The emphasis on the ugliness — I had never seen such ugly cows — is Pharaoh's personal response to the disturbing image. The application: the dreamer's subjective response to the dream images is part of the content that the interpreter receives.
