Incipit: يا من لا يحوط كماله كماله نطاق وصف الفصحاء ولا ينوط بادراكه افكار فحول الفضلاء نحمدك ... وبعد فيقول العبد الضعيف ... عبد اللطيف بن عبد العزيز بن امين الدين ختم الله بالخير عمله ... انّ بعض اخوانى وخلص خلانى فى اثنا الصحبة من البين قالوا ان مجمع البحرين كتاب بديع ... الحمد لله ابتدا المص فى اول تصنيفه بالتحميد اقتداء بكتاب الله الحميد ... [2أ] فكيف شانهم فى عصرنا المملوّ بالشرار
Explicit: واجازها محمد حملا لكلامه اى الصرف الى مصالحه تصحيحا له هذا آخر الكلام الحمد لله على التمام ولرسوله افضل السلام تمت بعون الله وحسن توفيقه والله اعلم بالصواب
