Commentary

Philological commentary

This leaf includes ca. strophes 28-34 of the Drohavarga (XIV) in a 4x25-syllable-metre (rhythm = 10 [or 5/5]/8/7). Strophe numbers are missing, but from the leaf count recto and verso side can be determined; this leaf immediately follows THT 34. The translation is even less secure than that of THT 34.

Remarks

Glass cover broken, remnant of the left side of leaf 194, damage similar to THT 34.
