Abstract

The first five lines of the verso of P.Cair. Masp. II 67188 contain a text described by Maspero as "une priere fortement tentee de gnosticisme". This text can be more fully understood in the light of the Coptie material from Nag Hammadi, discovered long after  Maspero's editio princeps. Several of its elements are of interest both linguistically and  in the context of sixth-century Egyptian Christianity.
