If anyone shall change or alter the agreement, "may Marduk and Zarpanit decree his destruction."(148) In Persian times we find a curse on the same breach of faith in the terms, "whosoever shall attempt to alter this agreement, may Anu, Bel, and Ea curse him with a bitter curse, may Nabu, the scribe of Esagila, put a period to his future."(149) It is curious thus to note a recrudescence of old forms in these later times.

... example. It strikes one as peculiarly modern, up-to-date, doesn't it? Well, it is the oldest name on earth—thousands of years older than Adam. It is the ancient Chaldean Meridug, or Merodach. He was the young god who interceded continually between the angry, omnipotent Ea, his father, and the humble and unhappy Damkina, or Earth, who was his mother. This is interesting from another point of view, because this Merodach or Marmaduke is, so far as we can see now, the original prototype of our 'divine intermediary' idea. I daresay, though, that if ...
