Interpretation

Commentary
A line has been added across the fork of the eighth letter giving it the appearance of a y and further lines join the preceding d to the letter and then other lines join the eighth to the ninth letter and the ninth letter to the tenth. There is the rough shape of a d after the bn. It seems likely the inscription is unfinished.
