12: AVRAM'S TALE
Praise to Shulpae, god of feasting! He has given us food to delight us.
Praise to Ashnan, god of the barley! With his aid, we quench our thirsts.
Praise to Gilgamesh, king of men! By his protection, we are safe, and warm, and fed.
Listen!
In the east, by the waters of Ocean, there stand great mountains Jagged, and strong, they challenge the realm of Anu, father of gods.
Men call them the mountains of Mashu, gateway to the day.
In the rocks, the ibis frolics. In the peaks, the itubi-birds sing.
In the pathways, the zuqaqip stand. They are tall, like men, Tall as the sons of men! And strong they are.
In one hand, they can crush a boulder; yes, even a stone the size of a man.
Their skins are not as the skins of men, nor like the fur of the beasts.
In the place of hair, they are clothed in metal. In the light of Shamash, they glow.
When the sun falls upon them, bright is their appearance!
