- Conservation Status
- The entire right hand side of this papyrus is missing except the top corner. Three horizontal folds still visible but no kollesis. The papyrus has sustained some damage along the folds as well as in the section of the papyrus containing the lower half of the text.
- Palaeographic Description
- The writing is in a large and careful hand; ll. 13-20, however, are in a slightly different hand or written at a different time. The writing here is smaller and more cursive. Some margin has been left at the top (2.5 cm.); to the left the margin varies considerably. Line 1 has been moved out towards the edge and the first letter has been magnified in a way which emphasizes that this is the beginning of the text (1.7 cm). The following line starts 3 cm from the left edge and other lines start almost on the middle, approximatele 4 cm. from the left edge. Ll.13-20 maintains an even margin, following that of 4 cm.
