Physical Description:

Extent: 2 fols. : nearly complete

Note:

Each line begins a verse; individual words vocalized.
The fragment contains two Rahiṭim. From the first, the first three verses of the acrostic alphabet are missing, verses ד-ת are extant. The lead phrase of the verses alternates יי׳ מלך \ יי׳ ימלך. Ends: תולה ארץ על בלימה מושיע אדם.
This appears to be fitting for Yom Kippur, but its proximity to the second Rahit suggests otherwise. The second is a complete version (verses א-ת) of the Kallirian Rahit for Ṿa-yoshaʹ. Starts אל אלהי עולם. The lead phrase alternates מלכותו כשתגלה \ יי׳ ימלך.
