| 3. //i-ta-a’-da-ar//: see AHw under ada:ru, “finster sein; (sein) fürchten” = “to be dark; to be afraid,” Ntn-stem (AHw 11b-12a); although the precise derivational meaning of i-ta-a’-da-ar is somewhat unclear, Foster's translation seems to capture the idea of the darkness of the liver as a metaphor for a negative emotional state: “His feelings were somber from misery” (Foster 2005, 148); the libbum “heart” and kabattum “liver” often appear together as the two seats of human emotion; the same pair in more or less the same function also regularly appear in Sumerian literature as ša<sub>3</sub> “heart” and ur<sub>5</sub> “liver” respectively.

| 4. //i-ni-iš-ma ik-ta-mi-us//: presumably verbal hendiadys in which the first of the two verbs describes the manner in which the second takes place; this would able reinforce the reading of ik-ta-mi-us as a Gt preterite rather than a G perfect. [[#First Strophe|(Return to text)]] | |
