Lake of tar
Elsewhere, the punishment is that the guilty person has to swim a lake of tar. The soul comes, on its journey, to a river full or blood.. For those whose consciences are clear the guardian spirits build a bridge. But women who have beaten their children, and men who have beaten their wives or sisters, are punished by being made to swim.
