Summary
First three or four words: In sanctitate et iustitia coram ipso omnibus diebus nostris
Last three or four words: Quia apud te propitiatio est
Evidence of later use or wear: The recto and verso have splashes from either water or some kind of liquid on the surface. On the verso somebody wrote “Ms. Mr. Frag. 31” which means that somebody used these leaves in fragmentarium work at some point. The leaves are also quite discolored, undoubtedly form wear overtime. The edges of both leaves are nicked with missing bits of parchment. On the outer edges of each leave are spotty bits of mold from wear overtime.; John Pino
