On ff. 5v-6r there is another poem or piyyut by the same anonymous author headed וקאל איצא and beginning אלהי העלה זכרי לטובה לפניך ועת קראי ענני. It is followed by a prayer in rhymed prose beginning האל בעוזו וגאותו ינקום נקמת עמו ישראל. There are many corrections in the margins and within the text of the last piece.
