Nebuchadnezzar, so devoted to Marduk and Nabu, appears to have regarded E-Kur as a serious rival to E-Sagila and E-Zida. Some traces of building operations at E-Kur appear to date from the Persian period, but, practically, the history of E-Kur comes to an end at the close of the seventh century.

But he, too, was obliged to retire before the destructive fire of the confederate cannon, which did not cease to belch forth destruction upon every detachment of the union cavalry that approached near enough to threaten them.
"Oh, darling, good, sweet mother," said the fourth. "Oh, darling, pretty, good, sweet mother," said the fifth. "Oh, darling, pretty, good, sweet, clever mother," said the sixth. "Oh, darling, pretty, good, sweet, clever, kindest little mother," said the seventh. So they begged for the pancake all around, the one more prettily than the other, for they were so hungry and so good.
