Halper states: "The first 3 leaves hang loosely"; unclear whether the last 3 leaves of prior fasc., or 1 bifolium + fol. ([1|2]+3? 1+[2|3]? [1[2]3]?) ; fols. 4-11 form an 8 fol. fascicle (4 bifolia: 4|11, 5|10, 6|9, 7|8; foliation, right-to-left, is: [11[10[9[8|7]6]5]4]).

Probably from a Siddur or a Maḥazor, as fol. 1 recto contains the end of the blessings on the Haftarah (from יבוא ויגל לבנו to the end). These are for a regular Sabbath, as specified in the text: יום השביעי הגדול והקדוש הזה.

The Hagaddah for Passover follows immediately, under the headline קדוש פסח. The Kiddush is for Passover Eve on Sabbath.

Contains the unusual blessing form בורא מיני מעדנים as appears in the Talmud Yerushalmi, VI 1 (fol. 3 recto. See N. Wissenshtern (Piyuṭe Yoḥanan ha-Kohen Be-Rabi Yehoshuʻa / Nachum Weissenstern [ed.]. Jerusalem : Hebrew University, 1984) compares this to the blessing of the Erets Israeli rite alluded to in Yoḥanan's Piyyut for Dew).

The Kiddush and poetic Grace are identical to those found in University of Pennsylvania Museum Genizah Fragment .014 (= E 16518), in which the Kiddush appears without the alterations for Sabbath, and the Grace is complete.

The question series מה נשתנה contains only three: מטבילין, מצה and צלי (as in Mishnah ms. Kaufmann and Alfasi).

The fragment ends with the Grace after meals (fol. 10 verso), under the heading ברכה, including much poetic embellishment, starting with an acrostic אז בפסח גאלת. This continues almost until the end of the first blessing. The final page of the fragment, 11 verso, is faded and illegible.
