Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Winnett: ʿm hzn rather than ʿmhzn. TRANSLATION hzn, Winnett: "the dwar". DISCUSSION King (1990: 678) commented: "The letters are clear in the copy as read by Winnett 1971 except the third n which has not been drawn. Winnett's interpretation would be extremely unlikely in Tham. E".
