Description

Ll. 1-4 originally contained a complete recipe, as shown by the double-curved lines in the first hand, that of the scribe, cf. electronic version of 21 a-m. They were the last lines of a page of a codex. The content and the use of the recipe remains unclear due to the small amount of text still extant.
