Note

This text is damaged and fragmentary. Note: Like BNF fr 95 (which it closely resembles, including a repeated error across both texts), this text is critically desginated part of the Version A group by most scholarship (see: Runte 2014, JONAS, Arlima, Foehr-Janssens 1994, etc.). However, also like BNF 95, this text includes two additional stories, Filia and Noverca, that are typical to the Version L family.
