Notes
Walters manuscript W.581 is a copy of the poem in honor of the Prophet Muhammad known as Qasidat al-burdah (The poem of the mantle) by Sharaf al-Din Muhammad al-Busiri (died 694 AH/AD 1294), with an amplification (takhmis) by Nasir al-Din Muhammad al-Fayyumi. The amplification and the text of the Qasidat al-burdah were written in Naskh and Thuluth scripts respectively by Ridwan ibn Muhammad al-Tabizi in 767 AH/AD 1366, probably for the Mawlawi (Mevlevi) Library in Konya, Turkey.
