If the hand of a ghost has seized a man, epilepsy has seized him, "falling from heaven"-disease epilepsy? has seized him, the Saghulhaza-demon has seized him, Lugal-urra has seized him, the hand of a god has seized him, the hand of a goddess has seized him, the hand of an oath has seized him, the hand of humanity has seized him, the evil Allu-demon has enveloped him, mania has seized him, he suffers from the shivers, fury, rage, anger of the personal god and personal goddess is against him, his ears ring, he is constantly in distress, he forgets what he was going to say, he constantly talks to himself, . . . , he vacillates, he cannot make a decision, he does not follow through with his intentions lit. speaking and changing beset him, he constantly experiences losses, he is beset with fear at night and daze all day long, conflict in his house and arguments in the street beset him, he is displeasing to those who look upon him, a curse from the mouth of many people beset him, he considers foolish thoughts against his personal goddess: Concerning that man, the anger of the personal god and personal goddess is against him. To release the anger so that his apprehension does not overtake him and these sicknesses are removed from his body:

You bring one measure of a loaf baked on coals to the sheepfold of the shepherd and give it to the shepherd. You buy a female virgin kid and feed it tamarisk all day. At night, you sweep the roof; you sprinkle pure water. In front of Ishtar you set up a portable altar. You strew dates and fine flour. You set out mirsu-cakes of honey and ghee.

Incantation: You are Kilili who leans in through the windows,

Wisest of the wise, who has the people's concerns in mind,

Who selects the wedding house, who makes the young woman come forth from her bedroom,

I libated for you mixed billu-beer and sweet kurunnu-beer. I have selected and presented to you

a pure female kid, worthy of your divinity, from the shepherd Dumuzi.

I removed its heart and burned it before you, which people have always done since former days.

. . . . I have set up lit. made a scale for determining weight.

I have placed my hair and the hem of my garment for the weight.

As for me, your servant, whom you, most exalted lady, have cared for,

You have made my limbs limp?, great Ishtar.

The exorcist has wiped me clean before you. With a censer, a torch, and a loaf baked on coals

he has purified me. With an agubbû-vessel may I be pure before you.

May your assinnu-official stand and bear away my hardship.

The illness that has seized me may he send out the window! May he send away my body's nakmu and nakimtu.

May he carry off the stiffness and lubadu-disease of my flesh. The illness in my body is as dense? as a cloud.

Rip out any evil, any unpleasant thing from my body!

Assign my illness, O my lady, to one who does not fear you!

Your assertion of mercy lit. "your 'enough!'", O Ishtar, lady of the lands, belongs to you, O Ishtar.

When the sick man has recited this in front of Ishtar, the exorcist lifts up the skin of the virgin female kid and recites "O queen Ishtar, great lady" three times. 21

Incantation: O queen Ishtar, great lady, may the heavens and Apsu rejoice on account of you!

May Anu, Enlil, and Ea greet your great divinity!

May the gods of the heavens and earth appease your heart!

On this day I have slaughtered the female kid, I have flayed its skin.

Any evil . . .
