- - [מקאמה] End of a whimsical maqama on wine (ff. 1r-5v). The participants in the maqama are wine, another beverage, a goblet, bowls, a pitcher and meat. 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. None of these compositions are recorded in Davidson's Thesaurus or in the data base of the Liturgical Poetry Project of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities.
