Notes
- 14.
The reading ἐρώτησον Τεφέρνην is problematical because the name Τεφέρνη is never attested. Nevertheless, it seems to be preferable to the former reading ἐρωτήσοντε φερνήν because of the absence of the article before φερνήν and because of the presence of the pronoun αὐτῆς at l. 15, which should refer to a woman already mentioned. With this reading the imperatives ἐρώτησον and ἀνένεγκον (l. 17) would be coordinated. It is unclear whether Τεφέρνη could be a variant of the name Τεφερσάις, quite common in the papyri.
