- Title:
- Divançe-yi Sezai - دیوانچۀ سزائی
- Scope & Content:
-
This volume contains the compiled poetry of Gülşeni Hasan Dede, known as Sezai (died 1151 AH/1738 CE).
The Divan opens with a münacat, after which come the gazeller (ff 3v-59v), beginning with the redif in the letter ra'. At least one folio is missing between those numbered 3 and 4. Interspersed between the gazeller are a number of na'tlar and kasideler. Rubaiyat and ebyat conclude the Divan (ff 59v-60v).
Three Arabic qaṣā’id by Aḥmad al-Badawī are found on f 61r, and these are followed by ferdler by various Ottoman poets (ff 61v-62r).
This manuscript was likely copied in the late 18th or early 19th century CE.
