Gilgamesh expresses sorrow to Ur-shanabi over losing the regenerative plant. Gilgamesh’s human side opens up more as the story continues and becomes prominent especially in his lament over the plant. Gilgamesh used to dominate nature and all its animals as his godly self but now he is more of a mere human vulnerable to the wild.

Innate human tendencies have been described in variety of ways. The term “archetype” refers to recurrent patterns of design, story-telling, symbol-making and ritual expressions found all over the planet at different historical times. Knowing that each human is the reincarnation of a long-lineage of ancestors, you would expect to find common themes of pattern recognition, group behavior, story-telling and symbol-making wherever you found humans. Species memory, perceptual skills, needs, drives,…
First of all, woodworms or similar insects play an important role since they are present in nearly every story. After the first chapter, which is narrated by a woodworm, woodworms are prosecuted for having destroyed the Bishop’s throne in chapter 3 (62f). Ironically, a piece of the parchment containing the verdict was eaten by termites, causing the disappearance of the closing words (79f.). The fifth chapter concludes with the remark that woodworms are living in the frame of Géricault’s painting…
These discourses enable Gulliver to foster an intense hatred towards humans, or Yahoos as he calls them. At this juncture, it is interesting to note that the Houyhnhnms term the Yahoos a degenerated race, selfish, lascivious, and cunning evil nature, which Gulliver readily accepts, to much mystique. His interaction with them is limited, but he readily accepts the subverted position with negligible questions. Subsequently, he is all ready to adapt to the Houyhnhnm way of life, endued with Reason…
