Notlar Formerly Ethé 874. A Hailebury ms., in a modern, half-morocco red binding. The manuscript is dismantled and is kept in two parts; the folios are completely restored. There was no original subdivision into books. The text opens with a double illuminated title-page (ff. 1v-2r), to introduce the prose preface, incipit: Hamd-u sitayish mar khuday-ra.... The margins covered with blue and gold floral arabesques, but much affected by damp. The poem itself begins on f. 6v under an illuminated heading, also damaged. The damp has also affected the end of the ms. and the reading of the colophon, which defied Ethé. The date is given by Robinson, Persian paintings in the India Office Library, London, 1976, pp. 219-26, who reproduces some of the miniatures, which he assigns to Astarabad, of the first half of the 17th century.The text includes the Barzunama, interpolated after the story of Bizhan and Manizha. One scene of the Barzunama (f. 238v) is illustrated; the choice of remaining scenes is rather standard. They share a common layout, with a substantial section in the margin running the whole height of the text block, generally but not always an architectrural feature, from which the main action taking place within the written surface of the page is watched. The pictures are generally rather detailed, full of action and liveliness, executed with a dark palette - possibly partly the effect of the damage to the ms. The attribution to Astarabad may be supported by the observation that the paintings tend to follow the wording of the surrounding text very closely, a characteristic that can be remarked in other examples from this region. On the whole, the text itself is close to the standard editions, though not without some reversal of lines, and omissions and additions from time to time. (Ch.M.). See also H. Ethé, Persian manuscripts in the India Office, vol. 1, London, 1903, 552 (no. 874).

The following line is Mohl no. 480.Location in text:Mohl 12b, Kay Kavus fights the King of Hamavaran, first line: 458, break line before: 474, break line after: None, last line: 485.the death of SuhrabScene Title:Rustam discovers Suhrab's identityFolio number: 097vLocation in text:Mohl 12c, Suhrab, first line: 1157, break line before: 1180, break line after: 1181.0, last line: 1181.The fire ordeal of SiyavushFolio number: 106vNotes: No image available at present.Location in text:Mohl 12d, Siyavush, first line: None, break line before: None, break line after: None, last line: None.The fire ordeal of SiyavushFolio number: 106vLocation in text:Mohl 12d, Siyavush, first line: None, break line before: None, break line after: None, last line: None.Siyavush playing polo before AfrasiyabScene Title:Siyavush plays polo before AfrasiyabFolio number: 116vLocation in text:Mohl 12d, Siyavush, first line: 1396, break line before: 1421, break line after: 1422.0, last line: 1422.the murder of SiyavushScene Title:Guruy executes SiyavushFolio number: 129rNotes: The breakline verse is a combination of Mohl lines 2516-17; compared with Mohl, the text seems disordered after the picture. The final line of the page is not in Mohl, but the penultimate verse is no. 2522. Once more, the left hand side of the painting seems disjointed from the right hand side.Location in text:Mohl 12d, Siyavush, first line: 2504, break line before: 2516, break line after: 2518.0, last line: None.Pilsam slain by RustamScene Title:Rustam kills PilsamFolio number: 135vLocation in text:Mohl 12e, Kay Khusrau comes to Iran, first line: 281, break line before: 294, break line after: 295.0, last line: 300.Giv encounters Kay Khusrau by a springScene Title:Giv finds Kay Khusrau in TuranFolio number: 139rLocation in text:Mohl 12e, Kay Khusrau comes to Iran, first line: 649, break line before: 653, break line after: 654.0, last line: 667.Rustam shoots Ashkabus and his horseScene Title:Rustam kills Ashkabus and his horseFolio number: 179rLocation in text:Mohl 13b, Kamus-i Kashani, first line: 1388, break line before: 1414, break line after: 1415.0, last line: 1415.Rustam drags the Khaqan from his elephantScene Title:Rustam pulls the Khaqan of Chin from his elephant by lassoFolio number: 188vLocation in text:Mohl 13c, Rustam and the Khaqan-i Chin, first line: 703, break line before: 722, break line after: 723.0, last line: 728.Akvan Div flings Rustam into the seaFolio number: 198rNotes: As is often the case, the text here deviates considerably from the standard editions; only the rhyming-words of the breakline before the painting are identifiable in Mohl (line 108).Location in text:Mohl 13d, Rustam fights Akhvan Div, first line: 98, break line before: None, break line after: 109.0, last line: 115.Bizhan slaughters the wild boarsScene Title:Bizhan slaughters the wild boarFolio number: 201rNotes: The breakline before the painting is not in Mohl. In contrast to the text, the picture shows a whole group of warriors, and the scene more resembles a hunt. Bizhan is killing a boar with his swrod in the left foreground, as in the text.Location in text:Mohl 13e, Bizhan and Manizha, first line: 119, break line before: None, break line after: 139.0, last line: 146.Rustam rescues Bizhan from the pitFolio number: 213vNotes: This has most of the traditional elements of the scene, although not all seven heroes are present, and it does not appear to be night-time.Location in text:Mohl 13e, Bizhan and Manizha, first line: 1167, break line before: 1175, break line after: 1176.0, last line: 1188.Barzu's mother prevents Rustam from killing BarzuFolio number: 238vNotes: The mother of Barzu interposes to prevent Rustam killing her son.

The last line on the page follows Mohl line 2426.Location in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 2406, break line before: 2406, break line after: 2407.0, last line: None.Gushtasp kills the 'wolf'Scene Title:Gushtasp kills a wolf in RumFolio number: 340rNotes: The line after the painting is inserted between Mohl lines 402 and 403. As noted by Robinson, India Office Library, p. 221, the manner of the "wolf's" despatch is rather unusual. The text indicates that Gushtasp was on foot.Location in text:Mohl 14, Luhrasp (120 years), first line: 398, break line before: 402, break line after: None, last line: 420.Isfandiayr lassoes Gurgsar and drags him from his horseScene Title:Isfandiyar lassoes the Turanian hero GurgsarFolio number: 361rLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 1446, break line before: 1467, break line after: 1468.0, last line: 1470.Rustam, cooking his meal, kicks back the rock rolled down on him by bahmanScene Title:Rustam kicks aside the rock pushed by BahmanFolio number: 374vNotes: Reproduced in Robinson, India Office Library, p. 223.Location in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 2703, break line before: 2725, break line after: 2726.0, last line: 2726.Rustam shoots Isfandiyar in the eyes with his magic arrowScene Title:Rustam shoots Isfandiyar in the eyes with a double-pointed arrowFolio number: 386vNotes: The usual crowded scene, rather unlike the text. Rustam's headgear is staring like an owl out of the painting, not in the direction of his head.Location in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 3786, break line before: 3786, break line after: 3787.0, last line: 3802.Rustam kills Shaghad before dyingFolio number: 391vLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 4227, break line before: 4238, break line after: 4239.0, last line: 4251.Bahram Gur hunting while Azada plays the harpScene Title:Bahram Gur hunts in the company of AzadaFolio number: 454rNotes: The two lines missing after the picture are rather crucial for the story, explaining Azada's change of attitude and resultant fate. Perhaps they were overlooked in the course of the exuberant painting. Reproduced in Robinson, India Office Library, p. 224.Location in text:Mohl 34, Yazdagird the Sinner (21 years), first line: 177, break line before: 194, break line after: 197.0, last line: 205.Bahram Gur clubs the lions to obtain the crownScene Title:Bahram Gur fights two lions to win the throneFolio number: 459rLocation in text:Mohl 34, Yazdagird the Sinner (21 years), first line: 649, break line before: 677, break line after: 678.0, last line: 678.A drunken shoemaker rides on Bahram Gur's escaped lionFolio number: 464vNotes: Reproduced in Robinson, India Office Library, p. 225.Location in text:Mohl 35, Bahram Gur (1) (63 years), first line: 311, break line before: 332, break line after: 333.0, last line: 337.Bahram Gur wrestling before Shangul King of HindScene Title:Bahram Gur wrestles before ShangulFolio number: 480vNotes: The text is close to the standard editions here, and the picture fits closely with the text, as is generally the case throughout the ms.Location in text:Mohl 35b, Bahram Gur (2), first line: 310, break line before: 324, break line after: 325.0, last line: 331.Buzurjmihr demonstrates how to play the game of chessFolio number: 523vLocation in text:Mohl 41, Kisra Anushirvan (48 years), first line: 2744, break line before: 2768, break line after: 2769.0, last line: 2769.Battle between Bahram Chubineh and Sava ShahScene Title:Bahram Chubina defeats the army of Sava ShahFolio number: 535vNotes: The painting depicts the start of the battle between the two forces, lined up opposing each other, with Sava Shah watching from his throne on the nearby hill, exactly as in the text. The breakline before the picture already refers to the flight of Sava and Bahram Chubina's pursuit (Ch.M.).Location in text:Mohl 42, Hurmuzd (14 years), first line: 880, break line before: 908, break line after: 909.0, last line: 909.Bahram Chubineh kills Kut the Roman during a battle with KhusrauScene Title:Bahram Chubina kills Kut the RomanFolio number: 564rLocation in text:Mohl 43, Khusrau Parviz (38 years), first line: 1778, break line before: 1801, break line after: 1802.0, last line: 1802.Murder of Bahram Chubineh by QulunScene Title:The captive Qulun mortally wounds Bahram ChubinaFolio number: 573vLocation in text:Mohl 43, Khusrau Parviz (38 years), first line: 2680, break line before: 2710, break line after: 2711.0, last line: 2710.Khusrau with a large body of attendants arrives below Shirin's palaceScene Title:Shirin greets Khusrau Parviz on his way to the huntFolio number: 582vNotes: Part of Shirin's speech is omitted here, and something of her performance; see the analysis of the story by Christine van Ruymbeke, "Khusrau va Shirin: not much of a love story", in the forthcoming proceedings of the Second Cambridge Shahnama conference. The picture, however, once more closely follows the text (Ch.M.).Location in text:Mohl 43, Khusrau Parviz (38 years), first line: 3539, break line before: 3543, break line after: 3544.0, last line: 3558.Sa'd-i Vaqqas kills RustamFolio number: 602rNotes: The iconography of this battle scene is a little confusing; the combat between Sa'd ibn Waqqas and Rustam, both on foot, as in the text, is taking place in the bottom left register of the picture, and Rustam is being dealt a mortal blow. The identity of the two royal horsemen in the upper register is uncertain. Probably, the painting depicts the action serially, with the first encounter of the opposing forces at the top, with their respective generals, and the denoiuement at the bottom.The first line is not found in Mohl's edition. (Ch.M.).Location in text:Mohl 50, Yazdagird (16 years), first line: None, break line before: 265, break line after: 266.0, last line: 285.The miller assassinates YazdagirdFolio number: 606vLocation in text:Mohl 50, Yazdagird (16 years), first line: 659, break line before: 675, break line after: None, last line: None.The capture and binding of MahwiScene Title:Bizhan kills Mahuy to avenge YazdagirdFolio number: 609rNotes: The last line is not found in Mohl. The picture follows the text closely.Location in text:Mohl 50, Yazdagird (16 years), first line: 853, break line before: 853, break line after: 854.0, last line: None.ColophonFolio number: 610r

Once more, the left hand side of the painting seems disjointed from the right hand side.Location in text:Mohl 12d, Siyavush, first line: 2504, break line before: 2516, break line after: 2518.0, last line: None.Pilsam slain by RustamScene Title:Rustam kills PilsamFolio number: 135vLocation in text:Mohl 12e, Kay Khusrau comes to Iran, first line: 281, break line before: 294, break line after: 295.0, last line: 300.Giv encounters Kay Khusrau by a springScene Title:Giv finds Kay Khusrau in TuranFolio number: 139rLocation in text:Mohl 12e, Kay Khusrau comes to Iran, first line: 649, break line before: 653, break line after: 654.0, last line: 667.Rustam shoots Ashkabus and his horseScene Title:Rustam kills Ashkabus and his horseFolio number: 179rLocation in text:Mohl 13b, Kamus-i Kashani, first line: 1388, break line before: 1414, break line after: 1415.0, last line: 1415.Rustam drags the Khaqan from his elephantScene Title:Rustam pulls the Khaqan of Chin from his elephant by lassoFolio number: 188vLocation in text:Mohl 13c, Rustam and the Khaqan-i Chin, first line: 703, break line before: 722, break line after: 723.0, last line: 728.Akvan Div flings Rustam into the seaFolio number: 198rNotes: As is often the case, the text here deviates considerably from the standard editions; only the rhyming-words of the breakline before the painting are identifiable in Mohl (line 108).Location in text:Mohl 13d, Rustam fights Akhvan Div, first line: 98, break line before: None, break line after: 109.0, last line: 115.Bizhan slaughters the wild boarsScene Title:Bizhan slaughters the wild boarFolio number: 201rNotes: The breakline before the painting is not in Mohl. In contrast to the text, the picture shows a whole group of warriors, and the scene more resembles a hunt. Bizhan is killing a boar with his swrod in the left foreground, as in the text.Location in text:Mohl 13e, Bizhan and Manizha, first line: 119, break line before: None, break line after: 139.0, last line: 146.Rustam rescues Bizhan from the pitFolio number: 213vNotes: This has most of the traditional elements of the scene, although not all seven heroes are present, and it does not appear to be night-time.Location in text:Mohl 13e, Bizhan and Manizha, first line: 1167, break line before: 1175, break line after: 1176.0, last line: 1188.Barzu's mother prevents Rustam from killing BarzuFolio number: 238vNotes: The mother of Barzu interposes to prevent Rustam killing her son.

As noted by Robinson, India Office Library, p. 221, the manner of the "wolf's" despatch is rather unusual. The text indicates that Gushtasp was on foot.Location in text:Mohl 14, Luhrasp (120 years), first line: 398, break line before: 402, break line after: None, last line: 420.Isfandiayr lassoes Gurgsar and drags him from his horseScene Title:Isfandiyar lassoes the Turanian hero GurgsarFolio number: 361rLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 1446, break line before: 1467, break line after: 1468.0, last line: 1470.Rustam, cooking his meal, kicks back the rock rolled down on him by bahmanScene Title:Rustam kicks aside the rock pushed by BahmanFolio number: 374vNotes: Reproduced in Robinson, India Office Library, p. 223.Location in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 2703, break line before: 2725, break line after: 2726.0, last line: 2726.Rustam shoots Isfandiyar in the eyes with his magic arrowScene Title:Rustam shoots Isfandiyar in the eyes with a double-pointed arrowFolio number: 386vNotes: The usual crowded scene, rather unlike the text.

The picture, however, once more closely follows the text (Ch.M.).Location in text:Mohl 43, Khusrau Parviz (38 years), first line: 3539, break line before: 3543, break line after: 3544.0, last line: 3558.Sa'd-i Vaqqas kills RustamFolio number: 602rNotes: The iconography of this battle scene is a little confusing; the combat between Sa'd ibn Waqqas and Rustam, both on foot, as in the text, is taking place in the bottom left register of the picture, and Rustam is being dealt a mortal blow. The identity of the two royal horsemen in the upper register is uncertain. Probably, the painting depicts the action serially, with the first encounter of the opposing forces at the top, with their respective generals, and the denoiuement at the bottom.The first line is not found in Mohl's edition. (Ch.M.).Location in text:Mohl 50, Yazdagird (16 years), first line: None, break line before: 265, break line after: 266.0, last line: 285.The miller assassinates YazdagirdFolio number: 606vLocation in text:Mohl 50, Yazdagird (16 years), first line: 659, break line before: 675, break line after: None, last line: None.The capture and binding of MahwiScene Title:Bizhan kills Mahuy to avenge YazdagirdFolio number: 609rNotes: The last line is not found in Mohl.
