Commentary
Remarks
| According to Broomhead 1962: 126 "[w]ritten in large ductus, and clearly preserved, it is the left edge of a large manuscript of originally at least seven lines. On the verso is a number, which cannot be identified. Possibly it is a form of '60' but this is doubtful." | |
| on leaf number: or ‘8’? - with a kind of doubling stroke and stretched out very long vertically |
Philological commentary
| : 6 or 8? - with a kind of doubling stroke and stretched out very long vertically | |
| n1 | [ñ]äṣṣāre: so to be read, evidently (see Peyrot 2010: 461), against traditional wäṣṣāre (e.g. Krause 1952: 290; Malzahn 2010: 900). |
