- Colophon

The colophon, fol. 42 b, states that the manuscript was written by one Murad, in the village of Azikh, A. Gr. 2142, A.D. 1831, when Ignatius, or George IV., was metropolitan of Antioch, and Dioscorus, or Yeshu'a, of Jazirat Kardu.

- On fol. 43 a we find a note, stating that the priest Stephen [Perhaps Mar Athanasius Stephanus, metropolitan of the Syrians on the coast of Malabar, from whom the book was purchased by the Trustees of the British Museum in 1856. See the note on fol. 1 a] bought it, in the same year, from the above mentioned Murad.

- Beneath this, also written in Karshuni, are jottings of journeys in Syria, Mesopotamia, and Southern India, between the years 1838 and 1851.

- Fol. 2 a exhibits a cross, over which is written the following words.

ܨܠܝ̣ܒܟ ܚܲܝܐ ܩܲܕܝ̣ܫܐ. ܒܗ ܢܲܛܰܪܰܝܢܝ ܡ̣ܢ ܒܝ̣ܫܐ. ܐܢ̇ܐ ܥܲܒܕܟ ܢܲܫܝ̣ܫܐ. ܡܘܪܐܕ ܕܘܝܐ ܒܝ̣ܫܐ.

- On the outer margin of folia 2a is another note.

- On fol. 43 b stand the following lines. The interpretation of the first sentence is ܚܘܒܐ , ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ,and ܣܒܪܐ

ܟ̇ܠܡܢ ܕܠܐ ܩ̣ܢܐ ܫܒܥ ܥܣܪ. ܚܲܡܫܡܐܐ ܬܘܿܒ ܘܬܪܥܣܪ. ܡܐܬܝܢ ܘܚܲܡܫܝܢ ܘܬܠܬܥܣܪ. ܡܕܡ ܕܐܝ̣ܬ܏ܘ ܠܐ ܢܹܣܒܪ .. ܫܡܥ ܡܕܝܢ ܒܚܦܝܛܘܼܬܐ. ܕܐܪܒܥܐ ܡܘܠܕܐ ܩܕܡܝܬܐ. ܘܫܒܥ ܬܘܒ ܬܪܝܢܝ̣ܬܐ. ܘܟܹܢ ܐܪܒܥ ܐܦ ܬܠܝ̣ܬܝܬܐ

- On fol. 146 a we find a long note, to the same effect as that on fol. 42 b.
