Contents
"Three lines of the invocation: ""By the power of Eternal Heaven, by the favour (?) of the Prophet Muhammad, under the protection of the great Fortune."" Pelliot considered it might be the missing beginning of Document III (Abū Saʿīd 1320) but did not adopt this because of the different hand and absence of a seal."
