Excerpt from El's Drinking Party1
This begins at line 5 on the front of the tablet.
Moon set his body down like a dog,
he crawled beneath the tables.
The god who knew him
prepared food for him;
and the one who did not know him
beat him with sticks beneath the table.
Why Moon is a dog is unclear. It is apparently the only time he's known to appear as such. This significance of this is also unclear, though the other side of the tablet describes a hangover cure which uses the hair of a dog.
