Item 1 (Fol. 1a): Part of a letter addressed to a person in holy orders. [defective]
 
Title:
Note: The whole of this volume is palimpsest, the more ancient text being written in a small, elegant character of about the viith cent, (see, in particular, fol. 5a).What the contents are, is uncertain. The words ܗ̇ܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܚܣܝܘܬܟ ܒܚܕܘܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܡܩܒܠܢܐ ܠܗܝܢ ܠܟܬܝ̈ܒܬܢ̇. ܕܡܡ̈ܠܠܢ, in the last two lines of fol. 5a, clearly form part of a letter addressed to a person in holy orders. On fol. 26a, in the second line, are legible the words ܐܚܐ ܟܝܢܝܐ ܡܪܝ ܡܪܛܝܢܐ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ; and on fol. 42b, in the first line: ܕܐܡܪܬ ܬܫܕܪ ܩܪܛܝܣܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ. ܡܛܠ ܕܗܠܝܢ.
