Not five, not 10 days had passed when Aga, the son of En-me-barage-si, laid siege to Unug with his men. Unug's reasoning became confused. Gilgameš, the lord of Kulaba, addressed its warriors: "{ My warriors shall have the choice. } { (2 mss. have instead:) My warriors, choose! } Let someone with courage volunteer { "I shall go to Aga" } { (1 ms. has instead:), and I will send him to Aga }."
