If a man bring to the Daityo-gâtu the fire from a glazier's kiln, what shall be his reward when his soul has parted with his body? Ahura Mazda answered: His reward shall be the same as if he had, here below, brought to the Dâityö-gåtu as many fire-brands as there were glasses [brought to that fire)?' 86 (260). O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man bring to the Daityö-gâtu the fire from the aonya parô-bereg ya?, what shall be his reward when his soul has parted with his body?
