The two ascenders are both long; the first has a wedge and the second lacks decoration. The back of d is fairly short and has a vertical tip. The back of e is fairly straight and vertical but is not horned, the tongue is high and angled up, and the letter is thus squinting. The shoulder of h branches from the base-line, but m is more set and has an approach-stroke and horizontal feet. Caroline r was used.
