b An erasure each side of iii sol'. Round reads thus. Cart. has in both nos. 238 and 239 proximum pascha.
Perhaps pascha not pascham is intended, as the superior a is used elsewhere where a not am is demanded by the sense. E.g. in no. 268, no. 4 hac has superior a; cf.
Xia in no. 291, and pascha floridum in no. 347. |
