Notes on the Apparatus Criticus (English)

Line 2: Read "δὸς" ("give") instead of the previously edited unclear reading.
Line 2: R. Bagnall, based on parallels in O.Ber. (Ostraca from Berenike), suggests a correction from the previous unclear edition.
Line 3: R. Bagnall, based on parallels in O.Ber., suggests "αὐτῷ" ("to him") instead of the previous unclear reading.
Line 3: Read "ἥμισυ" ("half") instead of the incorrect form "ἥμυσι".
