*	This is the largest fragment under the number PK AS 19.20 on the left. It is the left part of the leaf including damaged traces of the string hole. There is a remnant of the leaf number, namely 4, but there is no clear sign of the decade which is expected.

*	There are only illegible traces of akṣaras on this line.
