He rose to his master in public and prayed to him; he went to him in the Ubcu-unkena and saluted him: "My master Ninjirsu, lord who has turned back the fierce waters, true lord, semen ejaculated by the Great Mountain, noble young hero who has no opponent! Ninjirsu, I am going to build up your house for you, but I lack an ominous sign. Warrior, you asked for perfection, but, son of Enlil, Lord Ninjirsu, you did not let me know your will as to how to achieve it."
