Commentary
The letters read by NSR after the second name belong to NSR 81.1. The continuation of the text as read here is written on the other side and is not read by NSR. Several of the letters are covered by lichen which makes the reading difficult. The y of the first name is written below the m. There is no n legible after the first b and the following letter is very doubtful although possibly a stroke with a prong is visible. The n of the second bn cannot be read and the letters after the w are not clear.
