Commentary
Philological commentary
| On the recto, at the end of line a2, a piece lying on the ms. hides one akṣara. On the verso, at the end of line b5, a wrong piece partly covers nta (there is no ne, pace Broomhead). |
Remarks
| According to Broomhead 1962: 64, "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and slightly abraded recto, it is rather badly abraded on the left edge verso. The left edge ... No number is visible verso". |
