#note: Van Buylaere reads [ina la]-ba#?-an#? at the beginning of the line (thus, "with my prostrations" [lit. "the touching of my nose"]) and ⸢ZI-ti⸣ at the end of the line. She thinks tak-tu-ru should be read ik!(TAK)-tu-ru (2010a). It may well be a mistake; if so, it is an Assyrianism (third person feminine singluar form of the perfect) worth keeping in the text. My reading follows Mayer 1976: 470.

21. [...] lu-ša₂#-pi da₃#-li₂-li₂-ka lud-lul
