- WH: w ʾs²rq l-h-ms¹rt "he went eastward to the camp" for w ʾs²rq b-h-ms¹rt "and he migrated to the inner desert with the military unit"
- Commentary
- The author wrote the m of grmʾl twice and scratched over the second. The letter before h- ms¹rt has a definite curve and is identical to the b's (as opposed to the l's) in the text. The author wrote a q before ḫrṣ which he then scratched over.
