520 3    |a This section of MS 53497 contains the story of the Prophet Moses and his encounter with the angels Michael and Jibril, the latter metaphorically embodied by a hawk and a dove. Although, it is referred as an hadithi, this is a poem of 37 stanzas, in typescripts with many handwritten corrections on the side. The MS also contains a copy of the same poem, typed in red. According to Abou Egl (unpubl. 1983), this story was translated from the Arabic by Kijumwa who gave it to Hichens in 1933. According to the manuscript, Kijumwa received the manuscript, in Arabic, from a woman in Lamu. The same poem was also given to E Dammann who published it in 1938. In the Allen collection, this same poem is entitled ‘Hadithi ya Mtumi Musa’.
