Commentary
Philological commentary
| Akṣaras of the type lXä are consistently written with the two dots above each other instead of next to each other (so 2 times in line a3, once in line a6). | |
| n1 | ma: m like n |
| n2 | ma: m like n |
| n3 | mtä: miswritten for ramtä |
| n4 | taṅw: the ṅ and the w are in a kind of (irregular) ligature. |
Remarks
| According to Broomhead 1962: 235 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and very clearly preserved, the middle portion of an eight line manuscript". |
