  • jri̯.n=f (j)ḫ.t=j m sš(r) nb: I follow Lipińska, in: ZÄS 96, 1970, 46. Clère, Les chauves d'Hathor, 91 renders more freely: ‘Il m’enrichit beaucoup’. I know of no comparable use of this standard epistolary formula in self-presentation. Its selection may artfully create an informality of tone perhaps connected with the statue’s display in accessible temple space, as well as its intermediary function which centres on the spoken word (e.g. left, 3–4: ‘speak them to my ear and I will repeat them to my mistress’; compare with the emphasis on his role as messenger and reporter in col. 6, right side).

(A future release of the TLA web app will also indicate the scope of authors’ comments or annotations, i.e., which parts of the sentence a comment/annotation refers to. For the development plan, see here.)
