Chapter 1: Gilgamesh King In Uruk
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
Touch the threshold, it is ancient. Climb upon the wall of Uruk; walk along it, I say; regard the foundation terrace and examine the masonry: is it not burnt brick and good? The seven sages laid the foundations.
Chapter 2: The Coming of Enkidu (Enkidu meets Shamhat)
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
So the goddess of creation Aruru has conceived an image in her mind, and it was of the stuff of Anu of the firmament. She dipped her hands in water and pinched off clay, she let it fall in the wilderness, and nobel Enkidu was created. He was innocent of mankind; he knew nothing of the cultivated land.
Chapter 3: The Forest Journey (Gilgamesh and Enkidu kill Humbaba)
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
‘Who is most glorious of the heroes, who is most eminent among men?' 'Gilgamesh is the most glorious of heroes, Gilgamesh is most eminent among men.’
Chapter 4: Ishtar And Gilgamesh, And The Death of Enkidu
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
“No one can see death, no one can see the face of death, no one can hear the voice of death, yet there is a savage death that snaps off mankind”
Chapter 5: The Search For Everlasting Life
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
“‘Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
You will never find that life for which you are looking. When the gods created man they allotted to him death, but life they retained in their own keeping...”
Chapter 6: The Story of The Flood
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
Ea whispered gods words to my house of reeds,
"Reed-house, reed-house!
Wall, O wall, hearken reed-house, wall reflect;
O man of Shurrupak, son of Ubara-Tutu;
tear down your house and build a boat,
abandon possessions and look for life,
despise worldly goods and save your soul alive...”
Chapter 7: The Return
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
Now look for the cedarwood box,
undo its locks of bronze,
open the door to its secrets,
take up the the tablet of lapis lazuli and read aloud:
read of all that Gilgamesh went through,
read of all his suffering.
Chapter ∞: A Dream
5 1/5" x 4 1/4”
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow —
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
