Description

Poem of friendship written by Shemuʾel the cantor b. Avraham ha-sefaradi. On the back the holiday of sukkot is mentioned, which may have served as the occasion for the reading out of this poem. The writer addresses his friends and lords, declares his love and loyalty to his friends who wished him to be married and beget children. "Take this poem, albeit short, and your love will cover my sin."
