Language of text:
Psalms 1-45:10 (corresponds to Septuagint 44:10) where the text breaks off in the middle of a word. From the degree of pressure applied to the last words it seems that the scribe had run out of ink and thus had to leave the manuscript in its present fragmentary state.Catalogue Bibliography
