Recto: Abū l-Faḍā'il the cantor begs for money from Sitt Futūn, who also helped fund the construction of the synagogue (!), since he owes four years' worth, and she must have helped him 4+ years earlier. He writes: "You bestow charity on inanimate objects, and I am animate," and, "This is the equivalent of redemption of captives, for I am a captive." Verso: Possibly lines of poetry in Judaeo-Arabic about unrequited love. Probably not connected to recto.
