Anubis
The special healing powers of Anubis cast him as the rescuer, working with unconscious or anaesthetised people and leading the blind. He protects all who cannot see, whether through physical impairment, innocence or lack of worldly knowledge. In this way he provides safety and guidance for travellers and brings healing to those who are suffering.
Such griefs with such men well agree,
But wherefore, wherefore fall on me?
To be beloved is all I need,
And whom I love, I love indeed.
Words by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
