Notes
  1. The “l” in “ierusaleem” in the final word is determined from context. ↩
  2. The “ue” has been determined from context and the manuscript witnesses. ↩
  3. The “le” in the final word has been determined from context and the manuscript witnesses, as has the third word, of which the top of the “t” and barred “h” are still visible, as is a slight bit of the “e.” ↩
