Quotes about Ur-Nanshe

There is perfection in the presence of the lady. Lagac thrives in abundance in the presence of Nance. She chose the cennu in her holy heart and seated Ur-Nance, the beloved lord of Lagac, on the throne. She gave the lofty sceptre to the shepherd.
- A hymn to Nanshe, at The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature.
