6. Blot that night out of the year,and never let it be counted again;
7. make it a barren, joyless night.
8. Tell the sorcerers to curse that day,those who know how to control Leviathan.
9. Keep the morning star from shining;give that night no hope of dawn.
10. Curse that night for letting me be born,for exposing me to trouble and grief.
11. I wish I had died in my mother's wombor died the moment I was born.
12. Why did my mother hold me on her knees?Why did she feed me at her breast?
13. If I had died then, I would be at rest now,
14. sleeping like the kings and rulerswho rebuilt ancient palaces.
15. Then I would be sleeping like princeswho filled their houses with gold and silver,
