It appears from the survey that the EP version
follows L accurately, while D on two occasions
(c and h) has variants in agreement with A and
elsewhere (e, i, k) agrees rather with EF. D 8-26
and P 108-23 are renderings of the same passage in
L 99-119 but no comjaarison can be made between
them as hoth D and P are independently abbreviated
versions. L 112-19 is rendered in D 17-26 but not
in F, and L 104-6 is rendered in F 113-16 but not
in D. The two texts can be compared where they
render the same passage from L. Thus L 106-12
corresponds to D 12-17 and F 116-23. These passages
show clearly that D and F represent two independent
translations.
Then the possibility may be taken into account
that D 1-34 represents a survival of an unabbreviated
text of the A version. When compared with A,
D has on the one hand an addition (b) and on the
