Summary
This is a manuscript of instruction, divine and kabbalistic names and other meditations (kaṿanot) for the Passover Seder. The manuscript begins with an introduction ("Berikh shemeh", f. 1r-2r), and is followed by instructions with headings used from the Passover Haggadah; begining the Kiddush order with a specially created Aramaic poem after the Atḳinu seʻudata stanza (f. 2r-3v), followed by a long supplication (f. 3v-4v); following this is the scheme of the Seder with instructions and verses ("Ḳadesh urḥats karpas yaḥats" etc.). The Seder ends with the abbreviation a.k.y.r. (amen ken ye-hi ratson, f. 12v), after which begins a final poem and prayer set, with a short introduction quoting the anonymous Sefer Zekhirah and R. Menaḥem Azariah da Fano (Fano 1548-Mantua 1620) before a poem for late at night after the Seder (f. 12v-15v).
