Begins (f. 142v, lines 3-6):
لله حمدًا لا يزال سرمدا يؤذن بازدياد منٍّ أبدا
ثم على نبيه وحبه صلوته وآله وصحبه
وهذه أرجوزة محررة أبياتها مثل النجوم مزهرة
ضمنتها جمع الجوامع الذي حوى أصول الفقه والدين الشذي
Ends (f. 188r, lines 1-5):
ولو يروم أحد ينثيها أتى بها أكثر من ضعفيها
وأحمد الله على ما سهلا حمدًا ينيل من مزاياه العلا
مصليًا على نبي عمت
مكارم الخلق به وتمت
