Notes This collection begins (ff. 129v-163v) with prescriptions similar in style and format to those of the Aqrābādhīn of Ibn al-Tilmīdh, and at least one is said to have been chosen by Ibn al-Tilmīdh (اختاره أمين الدولة; f. 151v, line 3). Next is a ‘selection from Galen’s Substitutions [مختار من أبدال جالينوس; f. 164r-165v]’, i.e. from the pseudo-Galenic treatise on substitute drugs known as De succedaneis liber (see Fichtner, Corpus Galenicum , p. 79, Item 133). This selection from pseudo-Galen is said to have been ‘copied from the great Amīn al-Dawlah’s [i.e. Ibn al-Tilmīdh’s] own handwriting [منقول من خطّ الأجلّ أمين الدولة; f. 164, line3]’. The collection ends with a discussion of substitute drugs by Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn Zakarīyā’ al-Rāzī (ff. 165v-170r). Begins (f. 129v, lines 2-6): دهن القسط يسقى فينفع من برد (؟) الأعضاء وخصوصًا الكبد والمعدة ويفتح السدد ويشد العصب ويقويه ويحسن اللون ويحفظ الشعر Ends (f. 170r, lines 5-8): ... بدل عصارة طراثيث عصارة القرظ. بدل الشيبار مصطكا وصبر أو يقتع (؟) الصبر بدل أقرصة الورد ماء الرازبانج والكرفس مع عسل مادي. بدل جلنجين عسل مادي مع رازبانج Colophon Section at the end of a manuscript text. (f. 170r, lines 9-11): تم الكتاب بحمد الله وعونه وتوفيقه وصلى الله على سيدنا محمد النبي وصحبه وأله وعترته الطاهرين وسلم تسليمًا
