These glosses were written with a thin pen and are very small and quite regular. Teardrop-shaped a was used, the back of which is somewhat concave and extends very slightly above the body. The backs of d are straight and angled at about 45°. Straight-limbed undottedy was used, and the shoulder of n is somewhat rounded.
