Additions
Addition 1:
The doxology, fol. 146 b, is followed by six lines of writing in the alphabet of Bardesanes, which have, however, been in great part effaced. So far as they can be deciphered, they run as follows:
ܣܫܗ ܨܪܕܠ ܣܪܨܒܛ ܚܫܢـ
ܘܛܥܢܛ ܒܨܛ ܘܛܢܐܥܚ ܣܐܥ . . .
ܘܒܐܢܨܗ ܢܚ ܣܫܨ ܛܙܫܛ . . .
. . .ܨܠ . . ܨܥ ܕܠܘܫ ܥܒܣܪ ܩܛـ . . .
ܘܠܣܥ ܕܥܛܨ ܕܓܫܠܨ ܓܫܠܛ ܘܪ . . .
. . ܦܩܚܛ ܢܗܛ ܘܣܣܘܦ ܚ . . .
i.e. ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܝܐ. ܕܐܨܛܠܒ ܡܛܠ . . . ܕܚ̈ܛܗܝܢ. ܗܒ ܡܪܝ ܐܓܪܐ . . . [ܘܣـ]ܝܥ [ܘܚـ]ܝܠ ܘܥܕܪ ܠܚܡܫ ܬܐ[ܡ̈ܬܐ] ܕܥܡ̈ܠ ܘܠܐ̈ܝ ܘܙܪ̈ܥܝ ܙܪܥܐ ܕܫـ[ـܪܪܐ] [ܒـ]ـܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܡܡܕܟ ܒـ[ـܣܡ̈ܡܢܐ].
"Our Lord Jesus the Messiah, Son of the living God, who wast crucified for (the remission) of our sins; give, Lord, the reward . . . . , and help and strengthen and aid the five pairs (of fingers), which have toiled and laboured, and sown the seed of the truth in this book, which is mixed with (pigments)."
Addition 2 (Fol. 146b):
Over the first three of these lines are now written the words ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܬܘܢܘܣ ܚܛܝܐ ܟܠ ܕܩܪܐ ܢܨܠܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ, " this book belongs to the sinner Athanasius (or Theonas ?) ; let every one who reads, pray for him."
