To the king, my lord: your servant Marduk-šakin-šumi. Good health to the king, my lord! May Nabû and Marduk bless the king, my lord!

Concerning the application of the ṣillibānu-treatment about which the king, my lord, said: "It is very hot" —

it must be hot; why (else) are we doing this? Did he not (intend) heat, (when) he said "It should make him sweat?" But why is he seized by ague, through it is early summer? This does not make any sense. It is work of the gods.

And concerning the string of (amulet) stones — what the king, my lord, said is quite correct. Did I not tell the king, my lord, (already) in the enemy country that they are unsuited to Assyria? Now we shall stick to the methods transmitted to the king, my lord, by the gods (themselves).

[...]...

I am now writing to the king, my lord.
