Collation: II (4), 42 IV(340), 2 I (344) ; almost exclusively quaternions ; several leaves ruled but left blank (see pp.9-10, 17, 44, 254, 460, 681-682, etc.) or partially blank (likely for diagrams / illustrations never realized, see p.27, 28, 43, 253, 270, 445, 456, 459, 497, 513, etc.) ; twenty pages (p.[]-p.534) ruled for tables but left blank ; catchwords present ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during digitization (includes leaves serving as flyleaves at opening and close and skips two pages between pp.515-516). Colophon: "Authorial," reads " تصنيف اين كتاب بتاريخ هزار و پنجاه و نه ۱۰۵۹ در يمده [مدينه ؟] اكبر اباد در زمان شاه شجاع بهادر اتفاق افتاد" ; "Scribal," reads "الحقير الفقير محمد خير شاهى [؟] ۱٥ شهر ذي الحجه الحرام سنه ۱۲۹۷" Explicit: "یونین بضم یا و سکون واو و کسر نون وسکون یاء تحتانیه و نون موضعی است بشام" Incipit: "حالات با خود گفتم ..."
