- The last letter is a square shape with a cross in it. It might be an unusual form of ḍ or it could be a t with a square inscribed around the cross for decoration. There is a cartouche surrounding the inscription. Lane 686c: ḥyḍ ḥāḍat "she menstruated"; 670b: ḥwḍ ḥāḍa al-māʾ "he collected the water" ḥāḍa "he made a ḥawḍ (a place in which water collects or is collected)"
