Bribe

'Listen, O good Vrihannala, O thou of handsome waist. Turn thou quickly the course of the car. He that liveth meeteth with prosperity. I will give thee 
  1. a hundred coins of pure gold and 
  2. eight lapis lazuli of great brightness set with gold, and 
  3. one chariot furnished with a golden flag-staff and drawn by excellent steeds, and also 
  4. ten elephants of infuriate prowess. Do thou, O Vrihannala, set me free.'
