40'. gi3?#;-gu-un-nu-u = MIN#<(bi-i#-tu)>
in 1st sub col. the alignment of signs seems to be off; the scribe apparently began to write asz-ru, confused that line with ku-un-gu & gi-gu-nu-u, which should follow; in sequence, but wrote DISZ over ASZ followed by UN, NU & U, which if correct, results in 3 line being conflated; the scribe then wrote GU under it DISZ, while; keeping UN, NU & U; if this argument is correct, then the alignment in the following lines is maintained; if incorrect, then the alignment in the following lines will be; off (i.e., 41' gu-du#, 42' ki-MASZ-ta?#, 43' mi-bu#, etc.); in 2nd sub col.: faint indentation of tail of 2nd vertical wedge is visible
41'. ki-x-x?# = MIN#<(bi-i#-tu)>
in 1st sub col.: x resembles NU in the previous line (= dittography?); x?# resembles a faint winkelhaken (= another dittography?)
42'. mi#-par2#-ru?# = MIN#<(bi-i#-tu)>
