The gods are like one of the temple beams, but, it is said, their hearts are eaten away, as insects crawl out of the ground to consume them and their garments without their even being aware of it.
They light more lamps for them than they light for themselves, though their gods can see none of them.
They light lamps, even more than they light for themselves, though their gods can see none of them.
They light more lamps for them than they light for themselves, though their gods can see none of them.
They are like any timber in the temple; their hearts, it is said, are eaten away. Though crawling creatures from the ground consume them and their garments, they do not feel it.
