Notlar	The lucky prince meets the dervish and the magical woman (recto), the prince talks to the hungry snake (verso), from Tales of a Parrot (Ṭūṭīnāma) by Ẓiya’ al-Dīn Nakhshabī (d. 1350). This anthology of stories was adapted c. 1330 from a Persian text (Jewels of Evening Tales, Javāhir al-asmār, by `Imād ibn Muḥammad al-Thughrī, c. 1213), based in turn on a Sanskrit anthology (The Parrot’s Seventy Tales, Shuka-saptati, compiled by Hema Chandra). The story of the eighteenth night is about an exiled young prince seeking adventure. He makes a trade with a wandering dervish, who takes the prince’s ring in exchange for the dervish’s good luck. Right away the prince meets a magical woman who joins him on his travels. The two then encounter a hungry snake attacking a frog. Interrupting, the prince persuades the snake to stop: both frog and snake transform magically into two men, and the four friends now continue on their adventure. Folio, ink, colours and gold on paper, Persian text in nasta`liq script, with two paintings (on recto and verso), from Tales of a Parrot (Ṭūṭīnāma) by Ẓiya’ al-Dīn Nakhshabī (d. 1350), produced for Mughal emperor Akbar (r. 1556-1605), text copied by Ismā`īl Narang (inscription in codex, CBL In 21), Lahore, modern Pakistan, or Fatehpur Sikri, India, undated, c. 1580-1585.
