Ff. 1r-140r: 150 Psalms of David, translated into Tigrinya; the chapters are clearly laid out; versification stands in the outer margins; the left side of the text block is justified; at the end of each strophe, the line is left blank and a new line started, rendering the right side unjustified, the aspect ratio of the book is such that there are many wraps for long lines of text, the wraps are uniformly up above the line.
