Description

A learner's writing exercise in Judaeo-Arabic. The assignment was apparently to copy part of a letter in which the 'lofty' addressee was asked to purchase for the sender a certain amount of one kind of myrobalan (halīlaj kābulī) and 2 dinars' worth of musk and 30 dinars' worth of another kind of myrobalan (halīlaj aṣfar). The teacher has written corrections in between the lines.
