The first conjuration of this fragment correlates with the one on the obverse of KUB 35.145, but extends further, continuing the list of divine attributes that were extinguished. The reverse contains the final part of another conjuration, partially overlapping with the first one. The initial part of the third conjuration closely resembles the one on the reverse of KUB 35.145.
