This composition appears in Sefer Sha’ar HaKavanos: Sefer "Tzeddek VeShalom" Sefer "Yaffa Sha’ah", leaf 76-109: In the version copied by Rabbi Yaakov Tzemach in his Sefer "Olas Tamid" it is written "This I found in the writing of my teacher himself, yet I did not know whether it was his and I tend to think it is". At the end of this manuscript, as well as in the printed version, it was written: "This far the entire Sefer Drushim of the Rav has reached and I have not left out anything of his words". The version of the manuscript has minor changes compared to the printed one.
