37 B. M.—“To King _Annumuria_, Son of the Sun, my Lord, thus (says) _Akizzi_ thy servant: seven times ... at the feet of my Lord I bow. My Lord, now there is flight and no breathing of the ... of the King my Lord. And behold now the ... of this dominion of my Lord, in these lands ... and behold now ... the King of the land of the _Hittites_ ... sends forth ... and the heart of ... smites him. And now behold the King my Lord sends to me, and is complaining ... with me as to the rule of the King of the land of the _Hittites_. And as for me ... the King of the land of the _Hittites_. As for me I am with the King my Lord, and with the land of Egypt. I sent and ... as to the rule of the King of the land of the _Hittites_.”
This text is much damaged; it goes on to speak of _Aidugama_,(134)the Hittite King, in the country of the King of Egypt, who has taken various things—enumerated, but not intelligible—including, perhaps, ships or boats, and dwellings; and it mentions _Neboyapiza_. It then continues:
“My Lord: _Teuiatti_ of the city of _Lapana_,(135) and _Arzuia_ of the city _Ruhizzi_,(136) minister before _Aidugama_; but this land is the land of the dominion of my Lord. He is burning it with fire. My Lord, as said, I am on the side of the King my Lord. I am afraid also because of the King of the land of _Marhasse_, and the King of the land of _Ni_, and the King of the land of _Zinzaar_,(137) and the King of the land of _Canaan_. And all of these are kings under the dominion (or, of the rule) of my Lord—chiefs who are servants. As said let the King my Lord live and become mighty, and so O King my Lord wilt not thou go forth? and let the King my Lord despatch the _bitati_(138) soldiers, let them expel (them) from this land. As said, my Lord, these kings have ... the chief of my Lord’s government, and let him say what they are to do, and let them be confirmed. Because my Lord this land ministers heartily to the King my Lord. And let him speed soldiers, and let them march; and let the messengers of the dominion of the King my Lord arrive. For my Lord _Arzuia_ of the city _Ruhizzi_, and _Teuiatti_ of the city _Lapana_, dwelt in the land of _Huba_,(139) and _Dasru_ dwelt in the land _Amma_,(140) and truly my Lord has known them. Behold the land of _Hobah_ was at peace my Lord in the days of this government. They will be subject to _Aidugama_. Because we ask, march thou here and mayest ... all the land of _Hobah_. My Lord, as said, the city _Timasgi_,(141) in the land of _Hobah_, is without sin at thy feet; and aid thou the city _Katna_ which is without sin at thy feet. It has been feeble. And my Lord in presence of my messenger the master shall ordain (our) fate. As has been said, have not I served in the presence of the _bitati_ soldiers of my Lord? Behold, as said, my Lord has promised soldiers to this my land, and they shall ... in the city _Katna_.”
