The wife of Hea, the queen of the gods, Davkina, was a health goddess. In an inscription Marduk is sent to a dying man, and it is further said:—
“Sprinkle holy water over him. He shall hear the voice of Hea. Davkina shall protect him; And Marduk, eldest son of Heaven, shall find him a happy habitation.”
