^{page 148 note 1} Thompson, , PRSM. xix, 61, n. 5Google Scholar, suggested “to throw”. Professor Margoliouth, who made a thorough investigation of the Arabic verb for me, also thinks that, if a Babylonian verb warû (= vomere) exists, it may be “to throw”. Against this derivation are: (1) the definite statement in the syllabary, HAL (buru) = arû, and buru in Sumerian most probably means “glow, be hot”, and no Sumerian word bur, buru for “throw” exists; (2) no Semitic language has a verb for “throw”, which was consequently employed for vomere. Professor Margoliouth, however, claims that Arabic “to emit fire” is identical with “to throw”. It is certain that in the passage ŝammaḫu ŝa ina unṣi it-tarru-ú “the great intestine which by hunger is consumed”, the verb is actually employed in a sense identical with the Arabic “to be consumed by an internal ulcer”. My rendering in Babylonian Wisdom, 58A. should be corrected.
