he most probably derives from ⁂⁂⁂ or ⁂⁂⁂, a reading found in some papyri. But _Ba_, our oldest authority, has ⁂⁂, and Bekenrenef has ⁂⁂⁂⁂. The Turin copy has ⁂; and the context does not help us. Of these four readings (and there are probably others which I do not know) that of Bekenrenef seems to me the best; but ⁂ has so many possible applications that I will not venture to suggest one.
