[Footnote 17: Barth, p. 23, cites I. 123. 6; X. 107. 2; 82. 2, to prove that stars are souls of dead men. These passages do not prove the point, but it may be inferred from X. 68. 11. Later on it is a received belief. A moon-heaven is found only in VIII. 48.]

[Footnote 21: This religious phase is often confounded loosely with pantheism, but the distinction should be observed. Parkman speaks of (American) Indian ‘pantheism’; and Barth speaks of ritualistic ‘pantheism,’ meaning thereby the deification of different objects used in sacrifice (p. 37, note). But chrematheism is as distinct from pantheism as it is from fetishism.]
[Footnote 22: Some
seem to be old; thus Aramati, piety, has
an Iranian representative,
[=A]rma[=i]t[=i]. As masculine
abstractions are to
be added Anger, Death, etc.]

The Vasus are in Indra’s train, the
‘shining,’
or, perhaps, ‘good’ gods.]

to m[=a]navas,
the children of Manu.]

“in an earthly place, in the atmosphere,

[Footnote 36: That is where the Fathers live. This is the only place where the Fathers are said to be nap[=a]t (descendants) of Vishnu, and here the sense may be “I have discovered Nap[=a]t (fire?)” But in i. 154. 5 Vishnu’s worshippers rejoice in his home.]
