Original manuscript in Egyptian National Library.

This is a collection of ‘Abd al-Raḥmān al-Ṭabīb ’s glosses (ḥawāshi) on ‘Izz al-Dīn Ibrāhīm al-Kīshī ’s commentary on the Hippocratic Aphorisms. The introduction begins on f. 151b; the beginning of each Book is as follows: Bk1: 151b; Bk2: 156b; Bk3: 163a; Bk4: 170b; Bk5: 177b; Bk6: 183a; Bk7: 187a.
