Commentary

Remarks

	In one frame with A 123. This fragment was not edited in Sieg and Siegling 1921, but pāṇḍu wäl is cited in fn. 4, p. 68. According to Sieg and Siegling 1921: 68, the fragment is from the same leaf as A 123.

Philological commentary

n1	(e)preraṃ śaś(m)ā –: cf A 214 a2 epreraṃ śäm.
