Lost Manuscript

Babel MS 32

Three fragments from this manuscript survive, but all from a single chapter and none individually or in combination can help us reconstruct the dimensions of a page. From what we have, it would seem that this was a carefully written but unadorned volume; these scraps, however, may be lead misleading and understate its quality.
