The Lamentings

I am thy wife, O great one
Do not leave me!
Is it thy good pleasure, O my
brother, that I should go far from thee?
How can it be that I go away alone?
I say- I accompany thee, O thou who didst like to converse with me,
But thou remainest silent and speakest not!

Ankhesenamen's Lament



Why didst thou say ‘they deceive me,' in that way?
Had I a son, would I have written about my own
and my country’s shame to a foreign land?
Thou didst not believe me
and hast even spoken thus to me!

(excerpt from) The Second Letter to the Hittites
