"Silver, consider the palace! …… finds the time right, according to the turning starry sky, (and says:) "Come on! You will perform the work of your arms, you will help Enlil." But you stick out a long tongue like a buck-goat so that everybody can see. Indoors, the palace is your station and banquets are your assigned task (you say). -- Silver, I will demonstrate to you that the palace is neither your station nor your dwelling."
