Commentary
Remarks
* | Unlike the dominant poṭhī style, the verso is not upside down compared to the recto; the leaf had to be turned over not from bottom to top, but from right to left. |
Philological commentary
n1 | possibly toṃ piś, e.g. toṃ piś cmela |
n2 | ā would have to be from e.g. ṅ; following ·ai or ·eṃ |
