Commentary

Remarks

*According to Broomhead 1962: 108 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, the recto is slightly abraded but the verso is reasonably clear. Near the left edge of a large four line MS. Schnurloch visible."

Philological commentary

n1tsaksemane: a cross above the line is visible, but the ne added underneath is very faint (grey ink).
n2śpalmaṃñesa: a cross above the line marks the sa added underneath in grey ink.
n3kekenwa mā: a cross above the line marks the added underneath in grey ink.
