A compilation of 8 different Ottoman Turkish texts as follows:
(1) ff 1v-99v : Şerh-i Cezire-i Mesnevi, a commentary that is imperfect at the beginning, composed by İlmi Dede (died 1020 AH/1611-12 AH) on a selection of difficult verses from Cezire-i Mesnevi written by Mevlana Yusuf Sineçak (died 941 AH/1534-35 CE). This particular text was copied by Derviş Arslan el-Mevlevi in 1002 AH (1593-94 CE);
(2) ff 100r-137r : A short tract on contentment, without the author's name or the title of the work. It was transcribed by the same copyist as the aforementioned text in 1010 AH (1601-02 CE) in Istanbul;
(3) ff 137r-138v : Teraşname, containing verses from the Masnavi of Rumi with interlinear Ottoman Turkish translations. This text was also copied by the same copyist as text 1 in 1028 AH (1618-19 CE);
(4) f 139r : Part of an allegorical story;
(5) ff 139v-141r : Miscellaneous verses ;
(6) ff 141v-180v : The Ottoman Turkish translation of the Menakıbu'l-Sevakıb of Abdulvahap Hamadani made by Mahmut Dede during the reign of Murat III. This copy is imperfect at the end;
(7) ff 181v-183r : Tesrih ve teşrih-i Dibaçe-yi Hazret-i Mesnevi, a commentary by İlmi Dede on the preface to the Masnavi. It is preceded by a short tract on medicine, a portion of which is found on f 183r;
(8) ff 183v-192v : An untitled tract on the sayings of Hoca Abudallah Ansari that is undated. This is followed by astrological notes, medical recipes and some poems by Şams-ı Tebriz.
The undated portions of this manuscript are likely from the late 16th or early 17th centuries CE.
