Opening, letter body and finish

The opening stays near the height of the body letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 1.08×, while the whole image is 2.24 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.

Loops and the lower flourish

The sample contains 13 enclosed loops and 11 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
