Commentary
Philological commentary
| A piece which does not match is lying to the upper edge of the recto. It is upside down and reads w· [s]· and on the next line [r]·. The match of a small piece at the upper left is problematic. Consequently, kācc in line a2 may be wrong. The same piece appears at the lower edge of the verso, reading – in the first line and – k_u·e – in the second. The match of a small piece at the lower left is problematic. Consequently, ·m·_r\ m in line b4 may be wrong. |
