Origin: Lacks dated colophon ; decoration, hand, etc. may suggest late 15th or even 16th century.
Former shelfmark: "423 T.D.M. [i.e. Tammaro De Marinis]" in pencil on interior of upper cover.
Binding: Marbled laid paper (ebru in light blue, pink, yellow, dark blue) with dark blue cloth over spine ; limp (no boards) ; Type III binding (without flap) ; reverse of paper is undecorated and untinted ; sewn in black thread, two stations ; overall in fairly good condition with minor abrasion, staining, etc. ; textblock has certainly been trimmed (with attempt to avoid loss of catchwords) and carries traces of an envelope flap from a previous (if not the original) cover.
Support: non-European (likely Persian) laid paper with 7 laid lines per cm. (horizontal, fairly indistinct) and no clear chain lines visible ; cloudy formation, sturdy, cream in color, well-burnished ; repairs to some leaves.
Decoration: Fine illuminated headpiece at opening on p.2, consisting of rectangular piece with cartouche in lapis lazuli carrying a form of the basmalah ("باسمه سبحانه و تعالى") flanked by rosette pendants in black and surrounded by elegant swirling floral vegetal composition in red, yellow, turquoise, pink, etc. on a gold ground with lapis accents, all surrounded by borders of gold and lapis bands and surmounted by vertical stalks (tīgh) in lapis ; written area of incipit and facing page surrounded by gold frame with outermost blue rule ; keywords and section headings rubricated ; two-teeth stroke abbreviation symbol (overlining keywords) in red ; numerous diagrams (addressing meters, etc.) in red and black ink (see p.25, 26, 27, 28, 62, 64, 65).
Script: Nastaʻlīq (talik) ; elegant hand ; serifless, with slight effect of words descending to baseline, closed counters, and elongated horizontal strokes.

Collation: V-1 (9), 2 V(29), V+1 (40) ; quinions (first and last anomalous) ; p.64 left blank ; catchwords present ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during digitization.
Explicit: "هر كس كه علم قافيه اين مقدار بداند او را كفايت باشد تم"
Incipit: "شکر و سپاس واجب التعظيمى را كه بتشريف نطق انسان را مشرف ساخت ... اما بعد اين مختصر يست از منشات وحيد تبريزى در علم عروض و قافيه و صنايع شعر ... و اين را جمع مختصر نام نهاد و بالله التوفيق ..."
