The Mistress stands alone in the pure heavens. From the midst of heaven my lady looks with joy at all the lands and the black headed people, who are as numerous as { sheep } { (1 ms. has instead:) ewes }. { (some mss. add the line:) They parade before her, holy Inana. } I praise the lady of the evening, Inana, the august one, the young lady, Inana. { The lady of the evening reaches the borders of heaven! } { (1 ms. has instead:) The lady exalted as high as the heaven, Inana, is august! } |
