Description

Lines 1-4 contain the last four lines of a page of the codex and are the concluding lines of a recipe, as shown by the unusually deep lower margin (5.5 cm.) and the wedge-shaped signs placed by the scribe below the text. Line 3-4 relate to the uses of the plaster, while line 2 may have held the final direction for its composition. The content in ll. 5-11 is uncertain due to the fragmentary state of the papyrus.
