T-S Ar.37.7

Bifolio from a sort of commonplace book. In Judaeo-Arabic. (There are a few words in Arabic script from an earlier document that was recycled.) On one side, there are approximately 21 numbered entries, which may be eloquent phrases to be deployed in letters on the subject of love, hatred, and the bonds of friendship. On the other side, there are verses of poetry from Arabic sources, some attributed to Ibn al-Rūmī. At the bottom of the page there is a verse that is attributed to Bahlūl on some websites: "My soul hangs from your camel's saddlebag; if you intend to kill me, urge her on" (روحي معلقة في كور ناقتكم أذا عزمتم على قتلي فحثوها).
