I've read that when you cross the Cinovat Bridge
You'll meet a fair spirit who is the embodiment
Of your every good deed. Its size
Depends on those deeds' number and quality
The small ones cause no problems
Beyond asking to hide in your pockets
Or nestle in your carry-sack
(They know what's coming next) but the huge ones
Created by the truly good are different --
Scarcely able to move lest they flatten mountains
Or make insecurely fixed planets
Tremble in their orbits.
