Summary:
This is a manuscript of a Hebrew hymn composed to the Virgin Mary, created in the style and meter of established Marian antiphons such as Ave maris stella and especially Ave regina caelorum. Written in 21 short lines, descending below a caption title of one long line; written in an Italian square script with vocalization. This hymn was likely a manuscript copy among a collection of manuscript Hebrew hymns composed using themes of Roman Catholic liturgy for use by Christian missions to Jews.
