Cooper makes a note about this, McGrane says it is not the Simonides section.
And I ask Dirk Jongkind, Hugh Houghton and Mazzarino - nobody knows anything about this write-over smudge
Clearly, they could scientifically determine the underwriting.

and never was anything more beautifully executed than the transcript of the AjKX’alyptic ms. in the Monumenta Sacra Inedita.
