Commentary

Remarks

According to Broomhead 1962: 267 "[w]ritten in large ductus, it is very clearly preserved recto, but badly abraded verso. The left edge near the Schnurloch of a six line manuscript."

Philological commentary

n1lyyal: the second y is the normal akṣara, not the ligature counterpart.
n2ly[y]a: the second y is the normal akṣara, not the ligature counterpart.
