(Copper speaks:) " (1 line fragmentary) …… the oil jar, …… trap that ties someone up, …… all full of lies, …… his hand bringing taxes, …… erasing restitutions, …… people are deceived. A …… organised by you goes to the desert, ……. No one should put in a dwelling a …… by you. A …… by you should not make grain grow with the labours of the soil. It should not fill the silos with grain, it makes no one rejoice. It should not fill the hairy sacks with grain."
