A man a snake struck, a scorpion struck, a rabid dog struck,
their spittle gave.
Asarluḫi
to his father Enki a messenger sends:
“My father, a man a snake struck, a scorpion struck, a rabid dog struck,
their spittle gave;
what to do about it, I don't know.”
“My son, what don't you know?
What can I add?
His silver ala is purified;
once to the water the incantation is given,
the water the ‘foreigner’ made to drink,
may the spittle on its own go out!”
A man by a snake bitten: the water the ‘foreigner’ is to be given to drink. |
