 "Send [that god] to me that he might be my husband,
  That he might lodge with me...
  If [you don't] send t[hat] god,
  According [to the ordinances of Irkall]a and the great underworld,
  I shall send up the dead that they might devour the living,
  I shall make the dead more numerous than the living."
