Interpretation

Commentary
WH read WH 3531 as a continuation of this text. However 3532 is clearly enclosed in a cartouche and ends with ṭrq. What WH read as the lām auctoris is an extraneous line outside the cartouche and what they take to be the left-hand side of the ʿmʾ is in fact the end of the cartouche the righ-hand side of the ʿmʾ being the true lām auctoris. The r of ṭrq has small but clear hooks though these are not shown on the facsimile. All this can be seen on the photograph.
