The texts attached to this version are those that are the subject of scholarly debate as to their placement in either Version A or Version L. These texts bear a range of distinctive differences, varying from text to text, that betray a cross-pollination between the two textual versions. Sometimes this is typified as part of a text copied verbatim from A, and other parts from L; in other cases, these texts adhere primarily to one tradition, but then borrow portions or embedded stories from the other. I am also including in this group all texts that Runte describes as having sixteen or seventeen stories, but otherwise following the Version A pattern, when those additional stories are those typical for Version L's distinctive pattern (Noverca and Filia).
