Tell Ea-Nasir: Nanni sends the following message:

“When you came, you said to me: “I will give fine quality copper ingots.” You left, but you did not do what you promised me. You put ingots which were not good before my messenger and said:

“If you want to take them, take them; if you do not want to take them, go away!”

What do you take me for that you treat me with such contempt? How have you treated me for that copper? You have withheld my money bag from me in enemy territory; It is now up to you to restore to me in full. Take notice that I will not accept any copper from you that is not of fine quality. I shall select and take the ingots individually in my yard and I shall exercise against you my right of rejection because you have treated me with contempt.”
