8 lines. Lines 1-7 contain Bible quotations to do with sun and moon, such as Isaiah 66.22 (lines 3-4), Psalm 104.19 (line 5), Psalm 113.3 (lines 5-6). Final line contains the beginning of a liturgical poem that is an alphabetic acrostic. Possibly related to the prayer of Rosh Hodesh. Text partially faded.
