Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Harding & Littmann: bt rather than bn at the end. DISCUSSION King (1990: 668) commented: "TIJ reads bt at the end but from the published photograph it is more likely that the supposed crossbar of the t is part of the subsequent damage that has been done to all the letters of the text. The text is probably unfinished".
