- SIJ 306: k(h)l for kyn
- Commentary
- Harding's copy clearly reads kyn and the last letter is the same length as the n of bn and only slightly longer than that of mnʿm though this is not reproduced in the facsimile published in SIJ. Cf SIJ 431 which is almost certainly by the same author. Jamme's claim that 306 and 431 are two copies of the same text is rendered unlikely by the fact that the side stroke of the k protrudes from the lower part of the semi-circle in 306 and from the upper part in 431.
