Description

Epistle that is humorous in Judaeo-Arabic that opens with praises to God "who rounded the walnut. . . and put the whales in the sea. . . and who distinguished all his creatures, for some have their nose between their eyes and some have their heads between their ears." Perhaps copied from an Arabic literary work?
