Begins (f. 154r, lines 2-5):
... قالو (!) إذا ظهر في برج
الحمل دل على الهلاك في الملوك والرؤساء واستعلى
الأشرار والسفلة وأصاب ملك الروم آفة عظيمة
واضطراب في ملكه وقحط بالترك وشدة عظيمة بالحجاز

... وكثر الخوف في أكثر الأقاليم وغزارة الأمطار وفي المغرب وكثرة هموم
الناس ووقوع الطواعين والموت سيما بنواحي

والله أعلم وأحكم بالصواب
