Fol. 14v: The piyyut for Shaharit of the first day of the New Year prayer is divided into two columns by an ink drawing space-filler of a long grape-vine scroll with large leaves and grape clusters, executed by artist A. Inhabiting the scroll from top to bottom are a ram, two dogs and a lion which are executed in brown, red and black ink and placed one below the other. At the upper part of the page is a small initial word rubricated in red and surrounded by wriggly work in black ink ending on the last letter with a flourish extending upward. This wriggly work and the black dog inhabiting the scroll (which is the second animal from the top of the scroll) were both executed by a later hand of the 18th century (see: General Document, Decoration program, Stage B).
