Commentary

Parallel texts

*	THT 73, THT 74, IOL Toch 89

Philological commentary

*	Cf. parallels THT 73 b3-5, THT 74 a2-3 and IOL Toch 89 a4-b2. At the beginning of line a1 there is a strange blank (just like paper has been glued upon it, or maybe glued paper that is gone).

Remarks

*	Very probably the same manuscript as IOL Toch 879, with one leaf covering pādas 17c-20a in between.
