Question

How does the narrator's father respond to the narrator's desire to tell people the truth about the gods? I was taught the chants and the spells-I was taught how to stop the running of blood from a wound and many secrets. I looked after it, and thought if it had trod me under, at least I would be safely dead. He looked at me out of both eyes . He said, "The law is not always the same shape-you have done what you have done . I could not have done it in my time but you come after me. Tell!" "Truth is a hard deer to hunt. If you eat too much truth at once, you may die of the truth."

The narrator's father responds to the narrator's desire to tell people the truth about the gods by acknowledging the difficulty and potential dangers of revealing such truths. He emphasizes that truth can be challenging to handle and may have harmful consequences if not approached with care. The father's response suggests a pragmatic understanding of the complexities involved in dealing with sacred or powerful knowledge.
