Summary
Contents

Explicit ( ):
The miracles are numbered. Most of the numbers of the sections of Text I-3 were written in the main hand. The scribe numbered sections of Text I-2, and gave the first miracle number 4. Number 42 does not appear; the scribe stopped numeration with 45 (41st miracle) and resumed with number 53 until 59 (i.e. 50th-56th miracle). However, the 42th-49th miracle are given numbers 45(!)-52 written in a secondary hand in pen.
