The brother speaks gently to his sister, Utu speaks gently to his sister, he speaks tenderly to holy Inana: "Young lady, the flax in the garden beds is full of loveliness, Inana, the flax in the garden beds is full of loveliness, like the barley in the furrows, overflowing with loveliness and delight. { Sister } { (1 ms. has instead:) Young lady }, you took a fancy to a grand length of linen; Inana, you took a fancy to a grand length of linen. I will dig up the plants for you and give them to you. { Young lady } { (1 ms. has instead:) My sister }, I will bring you flax from the garden beds. Inana, I will bring you flax from the garden beds."
