The miscellanea includes three sacred poems: "About Sion", "About deplorable life" and "Fatal Years". The first two verses were written by inks; the last verse was added later and written by pencil. The last verse is the most valuable as it describes the history of schism in Patriarch Nikon's time.
Сборник включает три духовных стиха: "О Сионе"; "О плачевном житии" и стих "Годы роковые". Первые два стиха написаны чернилами; последний стих приписан позже карандашом. Этот стих имеет особую ценность, поскольку повествует об истории раскола при патриархе Никоне.
