Description

The Judaeo-Arabic portion on recto is a love spell (באב עטף) invoking a female supernatural entity (יא עספה(?) בנת כטוף בנת ברק וכטוף אעטפי קלב פבפ עלי פבפ...). This is surrounded by large Arabic script; above there is a phrase typical of letters, "yā mawlāy al-shaykh." On verso there is a different spell in Judaeo-Arabic (באב תהיג).
