CHAPTER XIV. 1. About the wonderful striving of the fiend for the destruction of Zaratûst. 2. When it became near to his birth, the Fever demon, the Pain demon, and the Wind demon of Aharman, each one with 150 demons, have come out to kill Zaratûst, and from his spirit they have gone forth to his mother. 3. And she is hurried from there by Fever, Pain, and Wind ; and at the distance of one league (parasang) there was a wizard, Impudent (Storko) by name, who was the most medical of wizards; in hope of practice he stood up from his seat, as she stopped in her progress.
4. A messenger of Adharmazd uttered a cry thus : ‘Do not go to a wizard ! for they are not healing (bêshazinidâr) for thee; but go back to the house, wash thy hands on the morrow with cow's butter held over the fire, also burn (tâpo) 1 firewood
1 T has .consume (viddzó).'
