Text page from a Mirror of Holiness (Mir’at al-quds) of Father Jerome Xavier

Yellowed, aged book page with dark brown and black stains. The page is open, with a right edge that is uneven and rough. The majority of the page contains a central rectangular block of text in black ink in a foreign script, framed by two thin lines, one blue and one orange, with a small rectangular box above and below the text. The script is written in a language that appears to be Arabic or Persian, with intricate calligraphy and diacritical marks, and the text is densely packed with no discernible images or illustrations. The page's background is off-white, possibly with darker shadows around the edges. Another page is visible on the right edge.
