Amulet, manuscript, ink on vellum. This amulet includes the names of the angels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel in each corner and prayers for protection from the many dangers that threaten life such as childbirth, fire and water. What is of particular interest is that it also contains a special prayer for the protection of love and lovers addressed to the angel Ahavi'el (loosely translated as God is my beloved). On the four corners are kabbalistic diagrams in the form of a square with grids. In the center are also kabbalistic formulae in micrography in the shape of a circle
