Gilgamesh, king of the great city of Uruk, confides in a lion. He tells him of the fear he inspired in his subjects; of his meeting with Enkidou, his rival and now his most loyal friend, sent by the gods themselves to calm his ardor; of his exploits against Humbaba, the god of storms; of his overweening ambition and the punishment meted out by the gods...
