The supplements possible are limited and none offer a basis for confident calculation of the line-length; probably it was about as long again as what survives.
l. 2, ΤΟΝ ΕΛΕΩΝΙΚΟΝ S. (with Ω written above O in both cases), τ[ῶ]ν [θ]εωνικ[ῶ]ν CIG, τῶν ἐλαιωνικῶν Robert, ΤΩΝΕΩΕΝΙΚΩΝ Reichel
l. 3, TON S. (with Λ added above Τ), ΤΩΝ Reichel; ΠΡΟΣΦΑΤΟΝ S., CIG.
1. 4, ΜΟΘΕΤΗΣΑΝΤΑΣ S. (with ΘΕΣ added in 1.3), but despite S.'s confident M, Reichel's drawing shows pretty clearly that there was no room for more than Ι before Ο; Ν suggested above ΤΗΣ S.; ΩΦΕΙΛΙΑΝ S., ὠφελίαν CIG, ΚΑΘΗΜΕΡΙΝΗΝ S., corr. CIG.
1. 5, ΝΟΙ S. (with Α added above the line), νοι CIG; ΜΗΤΗ, S. (with ΧΡΗΜ added. above the line), μητ[ε?], CIG; ΤΡΕΠΟΜΕΝΟΝ S. (with Ω added above the last Ο), τρεπομέν[ο]v, CIG.
l. 6, ΑΝΤΕ.ΛΟΓΟΝ S. (with ΑΥΤΗΣ suggested for the first six letters), ἀντ[ί]λογον CIG; at the end KAI, S., καί CIG, but the fragment shows that there was no room for three letters before the right edge and what is still visible of the first is compatible with Χ but hardly with Κ;
l. 7, ΚΑΙΝΟΤΟΜΗΣΑΙ, S., where it must be admitted that it would be easier to interpret what survives of the fifth letter as A; ΠΡ S. (with OΣ added above the line), πρ[ CIG.
l. 8, ΕΦΥΛΑΣΑΤΙΝ S. (with Ξ added above Σ and Η above Ι), corr. CIG; ΘΕΩΝΚΩΝ S. (with ΡΙ written above the first Ν which has been crossed out), θεων[ι]κῶν ClG, θεωρικῶν LR; at the end Α S. (with ΠΟΚΑ written beside it), om. CIG.
l. 9, ΑΛ added before ΑΝΔΩΝ S., but his layout shows that there was room for ΚΑΛ as restored by CIG.
l. 10, ΕΜΩΝ, S., [ἡ]μῶν, CIG.
