Ego ex animi mei sententia spondeo ac polliceor
studia humanitatis impigro labore culturum et provecturum
non sordidi lucri causa nec ad vanam captandam gloriam,
sed quo magis veritas propagetur et lux eius, qua salus
humani generis continetur, clarius effulgeat.

> I have been considering the ways in which scribes made corrections in the

> others!).  One way of interest is the use of what appears to be (in the
> colour copies of manuscripts I have) a yellowish paste or paint (an early
> version of modern day “white-out” or “twink”?) which can then written over.

> I attach a couple of examples. (The first example it has been used along
> several successive values in the third row, and in the second an entire
> column as well as individual entries.)

> Does anybody know more about this technique?  What was the substance
> used?  How widespread is this?  Where can I read more about this?
