Interpretation

Commentary
On another face of the same boulder as H 628-636. The letters are joined by carelessly hammered ligatures. The loop of the d is infilled and hammered to join it to the preceding l and a line has been hammered along the edge of the rock to join it to the q. The line of the q has been thickened to attach it to the following b. There is a hammer mark joining the n to the ʿ which is then joined to the crossbar of the z. The following letters are obscure.
