Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 398) commented: "The first six letters are light orangey and the rest a browny black. The l is a straight line. The first letter of the proper name is a short, thick and slightly curved line, I have read it as b. For this type of prayer, see Ch.4.C.3".
