Note 533 — Chapter V · SYMBOLISM OF THE MOTHER AND OF REBIRTH
Beatrice M. Hinkle translation
“In a Pyramid text, which depicts the battle of the dead Pharaoh for the dominance of heaven, it reads: Heaven weeps, the stars tremble, the guards of the gods tremble and their servants flee, when they see the king rise as a spirit, as a god, who lives upon his fathers and conquers his mothers.” Cited by Dieterich: “Mithrasliturgy,” p. 100.
