Verso
- Rosh ha-Seder
- Our beloved and eminent ma(ster) and t(eacher) Aaron the cantor the precious one,
- may our Rock protect you and increase your welfare and blessings forever.
- Our hearts are unto [you and] our yearning for you is great.
- Our entreaties (to God) are on your behalf, may the Omni(present) fulfill them and apportion to you
- good things and save you from all snares, through His kindness.
- The bearer of this note is Shabbat. He is one of the blind
- and receives his share with them. He told us that they cheat him by
- taking from (New) Cairo. He [reque]sts that I write to you to look into
- his matter with them. May you, blessed be God,
- do in this (matter) as you are granted abundance from heaven.
- May your welfare and blessings inc[rease] forever.
- Perfect covenant.
