Fragment b, containing the middle portions of lines 170-190, has upper and lower margins of 1.1 cm each. Fragment c contains the ends of lines 175-181, with no margins extant. Fragment d containing the beginnings of lines 192-211, has a left intercolumniation of 3 cm, indicated by ink on the edge of the papyrus opposite lines 191 and 201, and a lower margin of 1.8 cm. Kollesis appears on the front of the papyrus in fragment b, varying from 1.7 to 2.4 cm from the left edge; this corresponds to the area of the right intercolumniation on the back. The papyrus is medium-brown in color.
