The manuscript includes two kıt'alar that are unattributed, and semailer.

On ff 100v-103v, we find three tahmisler and one terciibent by Derviş Ubeydi; from the heading on f 102v, which reads 'Terciibent li-müharririh el-fakir Derviş Ubeydi el-Lofçavi', we learn that it was Ubeydi who copied this part of the manuscript, which is written in an untidy talik hand.

The contents of the mecmua also include a terci by Senai (ff 136v-138v); a tarih, with şerh, for the Cami-yi Süleymaniye (f 139r); Kaside-yi Tevarih-i Al-i Osman by Şifalı Solukzade (ff 150v-152v); Makalat-i Meşami, a didactic kaside (ff 153r-v); unattributed mnemonic poems on religious subjects (f 153v); Bahr-i tavil of Beyani (ff 154-v-156r) and of Ali (ff 156r-v); Bab-i şerh-i esma'-i hüsna, on the Divine Names (ff 159r-161v); dua and daire of the ricalü'l-gayıp, with a poem (ff 161v-162r); excerpts form the Tuhfetü'l-garayıp and Mir'atu'l-kainat concerning the special powers of some Qur'anic verses (ff 162v-164r); formulae of prayer utilizing the powers of certain letters (ff 164v-165v); an incomplete geomantic table (f 170r); parts of a work on musical theory, with tables and diagrams (ff 171r-174v); and a diagram indicating the approximate direction of the kıble from 41 towns (f 175v).

Several folios in the volume are almost blank. There are repeated patterns drawn in lustre on ff 146v-147r, and a small seal impression with a gold border can be found on f 157r.

The manuscript is undated, but was copied in the early 18th century at the latest, given the ownership inscriptions.
