Epic of Gilgamesh
_hu_ reduced to the breathing _'u_; read _i-ni-'u_.
[54] The tablet is reckoned at forty lines in each column,
[55] Literally "he attained my front. "
[56] IV1 of _waladu_.
[57] I. e. , in the suburb of Erech.
[58] _pataku_ has apparently the same sense originally as _bataku_,
although the one forms its preterite _iptik_, and the other
_ibtuk_. Cf. also _mahasu_ break, hammer and construct.
[59] The passage is obscure. Here _suhuru_ is taken as a loan-word
from sugur timmatu, hair of the head. The infinitive II1 of _saharu_
is philologically possible.
[60] I. e. , an ordinary man.
