Commentary
Philological commentary
| At the left of the verso, between lines b3 and b4, there is an illegible and unidentifiable piece. It seems that to the left of the leaf number a folded piece from the recto can be flapped back in reconstruction, but it is unclear how this should be read. Some kind of 1 is visible, and the right part of a vertical stroke as if from 30 or the like. |
Remarks
| According to Broomhead 1962: 246 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and very clearly preserved, it is the left edge of a large six line manuscript, with the number '152' or '153' on the verso". He also identifies this fragment as folios 45-46 (op.cit.). |
