Commentary

Philological commentary

On the recto, the ink is rather bleached out, except for the left edge. On the verso, the surface is rather damaged.
n1About 11 akṣaras are illegible.

Remarks

According to Broomhead 1962: 351 "[w]ritten in small ductus, and very badly abraded except for approx. the first four akṣaras on each side, the manuscript is the left hand edge of a seven line MS. numbered 56 on the verso".
