“And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.”
The seven lean, ugly cows that came up afterward are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind: they are seven years of famine. The second element of the interpretation — famine — is stated as directly as the abundance. The application: the interpretation that does not soften the difficult element is the interpretation that serves the person who needs to act on it.
