“How strange to feel herself so completely under the control of another person, but also how ordinary.

“As for you, Gilgamesh, let your stomach be full,
Always be happy, night and day.
Make every day a delight,
Night and day play and dance.
Your clothes should be clean,
Your head should be washed,
You should bathe in water.
Look proudly on the little one holding your hand,
Let your mate always be blissful in your loins,
This, then, is the work of mankind,
He who is alive should be happy.”
