Other
| a1 | Sei [guter] Hoffnung! Du besitzest [wtl. dir sind] gute Taten [d.h. gutes Karman]. Bestimmt werden sie dich [davor] bewahren, (in der) Hölle, (bei den) Tier(en oder den Pretas [wieder]geboren zu werden). (Schmidt 1974: 403) |

| b4 | Warum bist du so bedrückt? Warum bist du verwirrt? (Schmidt 1974: 156, 159) |
Commentary
Remarks
| According to Broomhead 1962: 147 the two parts (63 and 59) are ca. 10.2cm wide; "[t]he united fragment is the left edge of a six line manuscript, which is clearly preserved, except for the corners which are abraded." |
Philological commentary
| n1 | aklyy: second y is like the main akṣara and not the ligature variant. |
