[Footnote 1:  The letters above the line are additions by the first,
  or by another contemporary, hand.]

  [Footnote 2:  permiserit:  t stands over an erasure, and original
  it seems to be corrected to et, with e having the rustic
  form.]

  [Footnote 3:  The scribe first wrote longius se uehi.  The e which
  precedes uehi was added by him when he later corrected the page
  and deleted se.]

  [Footnote 4:  uale:  The abbreviation is marked by a stroke above as
  well as by a dot after the word.]

  [Footnote 1:  A fifteenth-century addition, see above, p. 21.]

[Footnote 2:  The scribe originally divided i-deo between two lines.  On correcting the page he (or a contemporary corrector) cancelled the i at the end of the line and added it before the next.]

  [Footnote 3:  i changed to e (not the uncial form) possibly by
  the original hand in correcting.]
