AbaNS 166: l nḏr bn mḥbb l h-frs¹
Commentary
The fourth letter might be a b. The last 5 letters are written on the other side of the drawing and it is uncertain how they are to be read. The editor does not explain the second l although it is possible that the last part of the text should be read l- -h frs¹ to him belongs a horse. There is usually a connective however introducing this type of phrase.
