Hebrew
Ḥananya (l. 1) "when he was in a ship [awaiting a favorable wind in Alexan]dria" (חין כאן פי מרכב, l. 1). The portion preserved here consists of poetic blessings and praises in Hebrew. He reports that upon the arrival of Shemuʾel's letter, "it quieted the storm and soothed the waves of the sea," which is metaphorical but also fits with the idea that he wrote this letter while in a ship (about to set sail?).

Refers to the difficult situation of a woman (or a female entity) this year, and mentions administrative terms such as nawāḥī, dīwān, ḥukm al-majlis. The script seems to be quasi-chancery, and the phenomenon of the stacking of baselines, and the official terminologies suggests that it may be an official correspondence written in a letter format. Also contains the standard report and petition formulaic "yunhī".
