Read the excerpt from Gilgamesh: A New English Version.At four hundred miles they stopped to eat,at a thousand miles they pitched their camp.They had traveled for just three days and nights,a six weeks' journey for ordinary men.When the sun was setting, they dug a well,they filled their waterskins with fresh water,Gilgamesh climbed to the mountaintop,he poured out flour as an offering and said,"Mountain, bring me a favorable dream."
