Notes:

Interlinear and marginal addenda; catchword found at bottom of fol. 2v; two vocalized words.; A fragment from the Grace after meals, containing the end of the second blessing and the beginning of the third. Both blessings are heavily expanded with a sequence of verses comprised of the names of the weekly Torah portions in their order (the fragment includes אחרי מות to וזאת הברכה, presumably the end of the sequence).; The names of the months, constellations and books of Hagiographia are also interwoven into the third blessing. The verses are arranged into rhyming groups (strophes) of fives.; This format and elements are identical to a different piyyut of this type, found in Cambridge TS H10, 89 (partially published by A. Habermann: Yediʹot ha-Makhon le-ḥeker ha-shirah ha-ʹIvrit, v. 5 (1939), p. 99-100).; Hebrew. Hebrew
