And the
head bowing deeply down is a sign which could remind us of
moe (GD54).
Indeed, we can find moe not
much later, viz. at the beginning of
c and then also later in
what seems to be a description of nighttime:
The glyph in P-6c has the same kind of sitting legs which
characterizes those of the 5b glyphs. But the
old head has remarkably changed into an empty
hand with its thumb connected to a new young
head, evidently evolved from the tip of the long
arm in 5b.
