- Title:
- [Fragments of two Divans]
- Scope & Content:
-
This volume contains the following two fragments:
(I) ff 1-22v : A fragment of the Divan-i Nabi (died 1124 AH/1712-13 CE). It begins in the middle of a gazel and is imperfect at the end. Some crude decorations have been added to the first folio enclosing the text within ruled margins; but it does not seem likely that the original intention of the copyist was to treat every folio in this fashion ;
(II) ff 23r-35v : Divan-i Baki, imperfect at the beginning and end. The margins of some folios contain part of a Sakiname and some poems of Feyzi.
Both texts were likely copied in the 18th century CE.
