{ To get lost is bad for a dog; but terrible for a man } { (1 ms. has instead:) An unknown place is terrible; to get lost is shameful (?) for a dog }. On the unfamiliar way at the edge of the mountains, the gods of the mountains are man-eaters. They do not build houses there as men do; they do not build cities there as men do. (1 line unclear) |
