The oracle answered, "Depart from the temple with head veiled and garments unbound, and cast behind you the bones of your mother." They heard the words with astonishment. 神谕指出说：“裹起头，松开衣带，出庙去，一路走一路将你们母亲的尸骨丢在身后。”这话使他们惊愕不已。
The earth is the great parent of all, the stones are her bones; these we may cast behind us; this, I think, the oracle means. 大地是万物之母，石头就是她的尸骨。我们可以往身后扔石头，我想神谕说的就是这个意思。
