The protasis would be &lsquo;[If a lizard] walks ab[out]&rsquo; [on top of a man&rsquo;s bed]&rsquo;. The traces are omitted from <em>If a City </em>2 (184, 32.29).</li> </ul>DIŠEME.ŠIDanaUGU{giš}NÁNAE11{?}…nu-kúr{giš}NÁDIŠEME.ŠIDanaUGU{giš}NÁNAE11{?}…nu-kúr{giš}NÁDIŠEME.ŠIDanaUGUGIŠ.NA2NA…nu-kur2GIŠ.NA2šummaṣurāruanamuḫḫierešamēliīli{?}…nukkurerširelocation of the bed.[If a lizard] climbs{?} [onto a man’s bed …]relocation of the bed.[If a lizard climbs onto a man's bed and …]
