Notes

The Zoroastrian Gathas are Mantic poems.

Mantic poems are poems written in a "mantic tradition...cultivated by priestly seers who sought to express in lofty words their personal apprehension of the divine; and it is marked by subtleties of allusion, and great richness and complexity of style."[1]
