Translation
ʾfl was present at the water-course and the {enclosure}

Interpretation

Commentary
There are lines joining the initial l to the ʾ, and the f to the following l. The tail of the k is slightly curved. From w to the end, the letters are rather carelessly inscribed and it is possible that the last part was carved by someone else later as an insult and should be translated as "and the cake of dung and urine".
