The king goes to her holy thighs with head held high, { (some mss. add:) she goes to the thighs of Iddin-Dagan, } he goes to the thighs of Inana with head held high. Ama-ušumgal-ana lies down beside her and { caresses her holy thighs } { (some mss. have instead:) (says:) "O my holy thighs! O my holy Inana!" }. After the lady has made him rejoice with her holy thighs on the bed, after holy Inana has made him rejoice with her holy thighs on the bed, she relaxes (?) with him on her bed: "Iddin-Dagan, you are indeed my beloved!"
