Note

"In writing this poem I have relied mainly on the interest of the beautiful Gilgamesh epic, and not tried to produce a brilliant or epigrammatic piece of work of my own. Many of the passages are simply paraphrases of the original text as translated by distinguished Assyriologists ... I have woven into the main theme other legends, such as the Creation epic, the Descent of Ishtar into Aralu, and the Adapa legend."--Pref.
