Birḫar-tura went out through the city gate. As soon as Birḫar-tura went out through the city gate, they captured him at the gate's entrance, and then beat Birḫar-tura's entire length. He came into the presence of Aga and then spoke to Aga. Before he had finished speaking, an officer of Unug climbed up on the rampart and leaned out over the rampart. Aga saw him and then spoke to Birḫar-tura: "Slave, is that man your king?"
