Commentary

Remarks

*The fragments of the PK AS 19 series (19.1-19.22) all belong to the same manuscript. This little fragment is the left side of a leaf including the string hole in line 3. Recto and verso cannot be identified. Some of the lines show remnants of akṣaras from another leaf.

Philological commentary

n1There seems to be form of the verb mäsk- 'to exchange' attested in this line, but it can not be identified with absolute certainty.
