Notes	About: Third of twenty-five volumes containing a collection of the epic tales of al-Malik Asad al-Fawāris ibn Jūdar [Jawdar], the fāris of ʻIrāq, in the manner of the Arabic heroic narrative (sīrah shaʻbīyah) apparently compiled in the present form by Muḥammad ibn Sulayman ʻArafāt (fl.1895) and Amīn ibn Muḥammad al-Sārī (fl.1895). \| Shelfmark: Ann Arbor, University of Michigan, Special Collections Research Center, Isl. Ms. 653 v.3 Origin: This volume lacks dated colophon. As appears in colophon of volume 25 (Isl. Ms. 653 v.25, pp.112-113) transcription of the entire set executed by Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥājj Sulaymān ʻArafāt with transcription completed 20 Dhū al-Ḥijjah 1312 [ca. 14 June 1895]. This volume was likely completed within months of that date. The colophon of vol. 25 also indicates that the work was authored by Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥājj Sulaymān ʻArafāt and Amīn ibn Muḥammad al-Sārī. Accompanying materials: For acquisitions slip and inventory cataloguing slip, see volume 1 of the set, Isl. Ms. v.1. Former shelfmark: From verso of opening leaf (p.2), "IL 163" (likely supplied by Yahuda, see acquisitions slip in volume 1, Isl. Ms. 653 v.1). Binding: Lacks cover, though spine carries traces of reinforcements in paper ; numeral ٣ (indicating volume number) inscribed on outer leaves ; somewhat crudely sewn in beige yarn or twine, mainly four stations ; overall in fair condition despite lacking cover, with staining, some tears, etc. Support: European laid paper with 9-10 laid lines per cm. (vertical), chain lines spaced 23-26 mm. apart (horizontal), and watermark of three crescents (78 mm. long, perpendicular to chains) above 'FERDINANDO BETTI' itself above word in Arabic script (see p.4, 6, 13, 14, 122, etc.). Decoration: Transfer picture of large flower with stems and leaves on 'title page' (p.3). Script: Ruqʻah ; virtually serifless with slight effect of tilt to the left and of words descending to baseline (occasionally more exaggerated), mainly closed counters, some elongation of horizontal strokes, point of final nūn often set deep within bowl, pointing (for two and three dots) varies from strokes or conjoined dots to distinct dots. Layout: Written in 13 lines per page, occasionally divided to two columns to set off poetry. Collation: VI (12), 5 V(62) ; chiefly quinions ; pagination in black ink, Hindu-Arabic numerals, center of the upper margin ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during digitization (mistakenly repeats twice p.46 and p.47). Explicit: "اسمي اسد والفوارس كنيتي وابي جودر ما به خفيا والليل امسى والحديث ليلة غدا وغدا تسمعون يا كرام ما يأتي في بقية هذا الكلام واصلي واسلم على بدر التمام ومصباح الظلام انتهى الجزء الثالث من سيرة اسد الفوارس ويليه الرابع" Incipit: "وصلى الله على سيدنا محمد النبي الامي وعلى اله وصحبه وسلم قال الراوي يا سارة يا كرام صلوا على بدر التمام ..." Title from 'title page' (p.3) (since altered, but visible beneath). Ms. codex. Ownership statement on 'title page' (p.3) seemingly dated 1321 [1903 or 4] in name of al-Shaykh Muḥammad Uways al-Ṣāliḥ ( الشيخ محمد اويس الصالح ) in Yāfā (Jaffa), statement reads "من كتب الشيخ محمد اويس الصالح بيافا ... سنه ١٣٢١" ; childish scribbles and pencil drawings of people, an animal, a key [?], etc. on opening leaf (pp.1-2) and 'title page' (p.3).
