Description of manuscript content:

The text tells the days are not fit to eat fruits. For examples, the seventh day of the waxing or waning moon is not fit to eat a coconut; the ninth day of the waxing or waning moon is not fit to eat a melon cucumber; the twelfth day of the waxing or waning moon is not fit to eat leaves from the trees. If anyone eats the fruits on the prohibited days, one will find disasters.
