Ethiopic psalter fragment : manuscript, [17--?].

Ms. psalter fragment. Psalms 1-32 are missing. There is a folio missing between fols. 83 and 84. Most of the Psalms have not been numbered; the exceptions are Psalms 101-109 and 150-151. It appears as though the scribe had never completely finished the work or writing the manuscript. At the end of Psalm 100 (fol. 61v) there is added the doxology (Pray for us, Mary ...). The curse against the erasers at the end of that same folio has been erased, and appears to have been again rewritten. The curse against erasers, thieves, and a similar curse including sellers of the manuscripts, is found at the end of Psalm 151 (fol. 108r).

1 v. (114 leaves; 1 column) : vellum ; 14 x 16 cm.
