1
The 'a' is written above the 'n' and is similar in form to the 'ra' abbreviation, as seen in 'ultra' two lines below
2
This looks a little like -eie with horned 'e', but there is no horned 'e' in this script, and it is fairly clearly copied as -ere; MS 2 reads 'totleie'
3
Interlinear insertion; probably by the main scribe
4
Clearly -ere again
