Remarks
| * | According to Schmidt 1986: iv-v this ms. comes either from Qizil or from Tumšuq. |
|---|
| * | From this leaf 2 fragments are preserved: one larger fragment around the string hole, consisting of 5 pieces and about 6-9 cm wide; to the right of this at a distance of about 2 cm there is a smaller fragment, about 2.5 cm wide and containing remnants of 3 lines. At the left margin 1-3.5 cm are missing. The leaf number is not preserved. |
|---|
| * | The original ms. was 29 cm wide and 5.6 cm high, with the string hole 6.5 cm from the left margin. It was written by at least three hands: scribe 1, a beautiful, delicate script, from leaf 1 to 11 a1; scribe 2, distinguished by a number of orthographical idiosyncrasies/errors, from leaf 11 a1 to and including 19; scribe 3 from leaf 20 to end. The final leaves A and B THT 1123 and THT 1124 may have been written either by scribe 2 or a fourth hand. Cf. Schmidt 1986: v, 2, 5 |
|---|
| * | This leaf is in hand 3. |

Linguistic commentary
| n5 | so sic! to be corrected and supplemented to (puru)ṣo. krito sic! for krīto. |
|---|
| n8 | Instead of the double dot at the beginning of this line one could also read [t·]. |
|---|
| n12 | maiyācce for maiyyācce; nuwalyñe for nuwalñe. |
