The changing lines

The third line:
A cauldron's handles removed:
it cannot be moved.
Cooked pheasant uneaten.
Rain now-in the end, fortune.
The fourth line:
A cauldron's feet break.
The duke's sacrificial food pours out.
His person is stained. Misfortune.
The fifth line:
A cauldron with yellow handles
and a golden carrier. Gainful virtue.
