And whatever other gift he gives that he gives with the hope, 'May I also have this in yonder world!' That he accepts with (Vâg. S. VII, 48), 'Who hath given it? to whom hath he given it? Hope hath given it, for Hope hath he given it: Hope is the giver, Hope the receiver. This to thee, O Hope!' Thus he assigns it to a deity.
