| Notes: | Parallel text: P. Mich. inv. 593, p. 8 ll. 1-4 (KYP M9, T880) 18. ⲉϥϩⲟⲣϣ Mirecki (1994: p. 446) translates as “slow” (qualitative of ϩⲣⲟϣ, cf. Crum CD 706a), but it is probably the qualitative of ⲱⲣϣ “be cold” (Crum CD 530a; Westendorf HWB p. 294 s.v. ⲱⲣϣ) and the related form ⲁⲣⲟϣ “become cold, fever” (Crum CD 16b; Westendorf HWB p. 12 s.v. ⲁⲣⲟϣ). |
