REPORT ON THE GLAGOLITIC FRAGMENTS 137hardly visible folio, which I shall call "folio (X plus A) verso" (fig. 1).Only a few words on that folio are legible. We realize, however, thatthe first four visible lines are the end of a prayer, and that thepenultimate legible line is the beginning of another prayer. The twocapital letters, of which only the агъ is surely legible, indicate that atitle is standing in between. If folio (X plus A) verso is connected withthe last folio of our fragment, it must contain some earlier prayers ofthe beginning of the Vespers. There are, in fact, some similaritiesbetween the visible words of that folio and the Greek texts of theprayers of the Second and Third Antiphon of the Vespers. 30There isno need to belabor the point, however, because sooner or later somescholar will inspect the whole fragment and put an end to the guessing.In the meantime, I am offering the transliteration of the visible part offolio (X + A) verso ( = Prayers 5 and 6).Prayers 5 and 6fol.
