Summary of Content | A writing exercise. On the preserved part we can see consonant-vowel combinations, one consonant and one vowel combined in each case. It seems that each consonant + each vowel was listed, in alphabetical order, so on the missing part there stood very probably all the previous consonants in the alphabaet paired with each vowel arranged in these seven lines. School piece? |
