Write $F(\tau )={\sum }_{M\mid N}c(M)E_2(M\tau )$ and $C={\sum }_{M\mid N}c(M)/M$. For $\gamma =\left(\begin{array}{cc}a& b\\ c& d\end{array}\right)\in {\Gamma }_0(N)$, each divisor $M$ of $N$ also divides the lower-left entry $c$. ThusThe full transformation of the Eisenstein series of weight two consequently givesSumming with the prescribed coefficients provesIf $C=0$, this is exactly the desired weight-two law. Conversely, test it at $\gamma =\left(\begin{array}{cc}1& 0\\ N& 1\end{array}\right)\in {\Gamma }_0(N)$. Its anomaly factor $6N(N\tau +1)/(\pi i)$ is nonzero throughout the upper half-plane; if $F$ is modular it forces $C=0$. This proves cancellation of weight-two Eisenstein anomalies:Equivalently the inverse-height terms cancel in $\sum c(M)E_2^{\ast }(M\tau )$, leaving precisely the holomorphic function $F$. Eliminating $c(1)$ shows that all such combinations are spanned by $E_2(\tau )-M{E}_2(M\tau )$ for $M>1$ dividing $N$.
