"The anger be a song you sing." It's a command.

on/in many thousand

Is it pren-r-axai,o (not really type 3) or 
pre-n-raxai,o (kind of type 3 but not really)?

"but caused them to become a reward for the dogs and meat-eating-birds."

I assume it's "x1 causes x2 to become x3". Similar to {galfi}. Except 
both rinka and binxo have "under conditions" places, so it could be 
"x1 causes that (x2 becomes x3 under cond. x4) under cond. x5"

Again it's a command, so "Sing a song..."
