Commentary

Remarks

	According to Broomhead 1962: 330 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and quite clear, it has four lines, and is the left edge of the MS. [...] The number 17 is clear on the left of lines [b3] and [b4]."

Philological commentary

n1	twe: a cross over twe should mark an addition, but none can be seen.
