These pages are all about the suffering of Enkidu after he learns that he has to die.
"In the early hours of the next morning dawning, Enkidu lay in his bed, fear in his belly" Page 41
This reminds me of the Odyssey in that the gods feel the human emotion of anger. In the Odyssey, Poseidon becomes angry at Odysseus for blinding the cyclops. It it the same when the god Enlil is angry at what Enkidu does in the forest.
Why is it that in these myths, gods become angry at humans? After all, shouldn't gods be better because of their divinity?

You are making valid connections, but you development lack greatly. I'd like to hear more about the Odyssey and Gilgames, in detail.
