I suggest a modification of this abstract. You should 1) give a brief summary of the content and 2) inform the reader about the two existing versions and refer to them, 3) make clear, that this CAe is a general record and meant only for those attestations for which the exact version is not clear.

features a devout monk Isaac who prays to the Virgin Mary for seven years, ultimately
receiving a vision of her and a promise of joining her in heaven after three days.
The second centers (also on the same protagonist, Isaac) despite his devotion during
a Marian feast, faces financial struggles and leaves his monastery. The Virgin Mary
then appears to chastise him for his departure. Three days later, as she promised, he
joined her in heaven. Despite the differing narratives, both versions conclude with
the same stanza and miniature, specifically associated with the so-called ʾAkkonu

@CarstenHoffmannMarburg notes correctly
I think, these incipits should go the newly created CAe to which they belong. If this is a generic record, it should not contain any incipit or explicit or any other text. Otherwise the encoders and users will be confused about the correct CAe.

great devotion but faced financial hardships that hindered his ability to care
for the poor. Unable to manage the monastery, he fled to the Monastery of
Ascetics in Egypt. Despite a directive from the patriarch Abba Mikael to return, Yǝsḥaq
refused due to his old age and limitations. That night, while praying in the
church, the Virgin Mary appeared to him, rebuking him for abandoning her feast
but acknowledging his past good deeds. She promised him that he would join her
in heaven in three days, a promise that came true as Yǝsḥaq passed away
peacefully three days later. </p>

It is clear nothing is mixed. The fisrt miracle version is found in (for example) in MSS BL Or. 641, AIC 2002.4 (CIA2024, Bm ID), CCGR-001, DD-001, and BnFabb 114 but also in other old manuscripts listed in the spesfic record LIT7150Miracle. For the other record LIT7151Miracle, the second miracle, they are MSS BL Or. 639 and the other listed provided there.

Guesh, once again:

  1. The general record - it only has the GENERAL TITLE (not the titles of the versions) and the GENERAL ABSTRACT, it has no text, but it has RELATIONS to the versions
  2. The records for the versions have list of witnesses under listWit and specific titles and texts.
  3. Links (whether as ref, target, corresp, active or passive) may have only IDs, there may be no blank spaces, brackets, or anything else between the quotation marks

Please revise all the records in this pull request very carefully. Thank you.
