Note 591 — Chapter VI · THE BATTLE FOR DELIVERANCE FROM THE MOTHER
Beatrice M. Hinkle translation
Therefore the lion was killed by Samson, who later harvested the honey from the body. The end of summer is the plenteousness of the autumn. It is a close parallel to the sacrificium Mithriacum. For Samson, see Steinthal: “Die Sage von Simson,” Zeitschrift für Völkerpsych., Vol. II.
