Commentary
These are the scratched letters above the end of SIJ 783. They are mainly obscured by large wasm which Jamme takes as another text (his “SIJ 783a” which he reads: l lb). What can be seen of the letters under the wasm suggests that the text runs in the opposite direction to that in which Jamme reads it.
