Notes
Early, but slightly defective, collection of mainly Sufism mas̲navī compositions followed by the collected ghazalīyāt of the Sufi and poet, Nāṣir ʿAlī of Sirhind. Volume not dated; items b-c, and e dated (ranging 29 Rabīʿ al-Avval-22 Z̲ī Qaʿdah 1142/22 Oct 1729-8 June 1730). Neat scribal nastaʿlīq. Intermittent rubrication. Intermittent foliation in pencil. Lacking original binding. Old paper dust wrapper (BEIC legal publication for Regulation VIII of 1819); torn, creased, stains; labels. Folios unbound and loose; lacuna (between ff. 194-195) excessive wormholes, creases, stains, smudged text, cropped. Condition very fragile.
