"In the Zoroastrian religion, after soul and body have separated, the souls, _in the third night_ after death--as soon as the s.h.i.+ning sun ascends--come over the Mount Berezaiti upon the bridge Ts.h.i.+navat which leads to Garonmana, the dwelling of the good G.o.ds." (Dunlap's Spirit Hist., p. 216, and Mysteries of Adoni, 60.)

The Ghost of Polydore says:

"Being raised up this _third day_--light, Having deserted my body!"

(Euripides, Hecuba, 31, 32.)
