Commentary
SIJ's reading is confirmed by Winnett's own photograph (Winn H5 II/6) and can be seen on Harding's (A. 1876). Note that the letter-forms and arrangement of the text on the copy published in SIJ bear little relation to those on either photograph. Note that SIJ 99 is on the same face as SIJ 36.
