3. Hebrew Group B

Hebrew Group B, found in only two manuscripts, forms the basis of Morris Epstein's 1967 edition of Mishle Sendebar. The Oxford manuscripts that make up Group B include the embedded stories Jusjurandum, Fur et Luna, and Ingenia, and do not include Gibbosi or Senex Caecus prior to the empress's last story.
