Unexpected token } and I am blind

Question

I have started working on my first project and it was working until I expanded it. 
This is the (mainly JQuery) code:
```js
var runeGeneration = function() {
    $overlay.empty();
    $("section").append($overlay);
    $overlay.append($pseudo);
    for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        imageGeneration();
    }
    $overlay.append($closeOverlay);
    $closeOverlay.click(function(){
        $overlay.hide();
    });
    $('img.rune').click(function(){
        $("section").append($descriptionBox);
        $.get('/descriptions/ansur.txt', function(data) {
        $(descriptionBox).html(data);
        }, 'text');
    });
}
```
The piece that I just added is this
```js
        $.get('/descriptions/ansur.txt', function(data) {
        $(descriptionBox).html(data);
        }, 'text');
    });
````
It was working until now and suddenly it throws an error but I can't find where it comes from. Although, to be honest I have been staring at code the last 5 hours and that might have something to do with it.
Thank you for looking at it.

Ran it through jsbeautifier (http://jsbeautifier.org/).  All parenthesis and brackets match up.  
 Thought $.get would throw an error, but that's funky jQuery shorthand (https://api.jquery.com/jquery.get/).
 Did you mean...
javascript
/*this*/     $(descriptionBox).html(data); 
/*or this*/  $descriptionBox.html(data);
  
Finally are you sure the bracket error is in this section of your code?
 Provide more code if you get to this point.

Thank you for your answer Josh. I can't provide more code as I have already thrown the whole thing out and rewritten it. :)
