Description

Informal note in Arabic script. (Addressed to a dignitary according to the Baker/Polliack catalog, but this does not seem to be founded.) "By God, man, I heard..." (billāh yā sīdī balaghanī...). The margins and the remaining three pages of the bifolio are filled with Judaeo-Arabic poetry.
