A curious miniature 9 x 8 cm production, comprising 12 pages of manuscript and secured with a single staple in a blue card cover (image 1). "This amulet to be worn for 170 days, then burnt" (image 1 lower right). It also states: "Puzzle X11. Mouse Ear in Muddledom" (image 2). Series 1, No 12 (image 3). Dated 10th June '02. Arabic calligraphy to top cover and rear (image 3). No clue about authorship. The word "Rabi" means "Spring" and Al-awwal means "the first" in the Arabic language, so "Rabi' al-awwal" means "the first spring". See the bottom left corner, of the top cover (image 1).
