"Look, my sister! What is the lamb seeking from his mother?" His sister replied to him: "He is mounting on the back of his mother, and making her sing out." (Dumuzid speaks:) "If he is mounting on her back, and making her sing out, what it really is ……: he is copulating with her and filling her to overflowing with his semen."
