    a piece of silver as a luck penny and if he does not wish the person who buys it. "The height of good luck" that the man who sells it will have no luck. If an animal dies and the skin is taken off and sold and if the money which is got for it is not put into the price of another cow that he will have no luck with the rest of his cattle.
