Palaeographic Description
This parchment may be dated to the 10th century A.D. Quite similar is the hand of Stud. Pal. XV 195, see Till, Koptische Grammatik, Tafel 1 (opposite p. 254); cf. also Hyvernat, Album de paleographie copte, pl. XI.1 (ca. 10th century A.D.). As is often the case with late Sahidic manuscripts, the supralinear stroke is considerably shortened, often appearing as mere point. Other lectional points are used in the text.

Translation
Recto (hair side): ". . . on the field, and I know that my sister grieves concerning me." Paul said to him: "I also for my part shall go with you. Why, O my brother, are you disturbed? But stay for this week . . . "
Verso (flesh side): " . . . [was] afraid to go to them lest it should be told to the duke and he should seize him, saying: "sacrifice." And after this, it was the twentieth of Parmoute, and the emperor Diocletian exiled a youth . . . "
