In this, the shortest piece in the show, Gilgamesh laments the loss
of Enkidu, exhorting every place or person Enkidu has known to mourn his
passing. He instructs his artisans to create a statue of Enkidu using
the finest and rarest materials, and declares that he will now wander
the wilderness wearing skins, unable to bear continuing with normal life
without his friend by his side.
Finally Enkidu is laid to rest, buried under the bed of the River Euphrates.
