Collection of Poems and Hymns. Manuscript. Morocco, 18th Century
Ledger with many tens of poems and hymns for all the days of the year and various events from tens of poets. Nice, organized manuscript. [Morocco, 18th century].
About 170 leaves, including about 80 leaves with text, 16x11 cm. The ledger opens from bottom to top.
A superficial scan of the material disclosed one hymn that does not appear in Davidson's "Thesaurus of Mediaeval Hebrew Poetry". It is possible that further perusal will disclose others that are not listed, and some that may be completely unknown.
Blemished from dampness. Generally in fine condition.
