Notes
Miscellaneous collection of literary and lexicographic works on pharmacology and medicine, mainly by secretary of the Timurid or Mughal Emperor Humāyūn (d. 963/1556), Yūsuf ibn Muḥammad ibn Yūsuf al-Ṭabīb takhalluṣ "Yūsufī" . Volume not dated; items a, b, g, h and i dated, ranging 26 Muḥarram-23 Ṣafar 1195/22 January-18 February 1781. However, the volume generally appears to be the work of the same scribe as that identified in items h and i, Qāz̤ī Muḥammad Shāh Hindūnavī , who wrote at the request of Rājah Ajīt Singh Bahādur of Balamgarh . Summary of contents added at beginning. Rough to neat scribal nastaʿlīq. Annotations and corrections in margins. Stamped foliation. Lacking original binding. Leather binding damaged, detached and delaminating boards exposing inner matter. Folios bound; cropped, wormholes, later repairs. Condition moderately fragile.
