The eagle that you saw, with a lion's head, stands for Humbaba. Though it dived straight toward you

and terrifying flames shot from its mouth,

nothing could cause you harm. The young man

who came to your rescue was our lord, Shamash.

He will stand beside us when the monster attacks.

–Gilgamesh: A New English Translation,
Stephen Mitchell
