Some pages injured; fol. 206b almost entirely effaced. This dîwân, together with the نكات , رقعات, and چهار عنصر, has been lithographed, A.H. 1287, at Lucknow, under the title كلّيّات بيدل.

[IO Islamic 261] ثمرة الفؤاد و نتيجة الوداد

<ul> <li>Thamarat-alfu’âd wa natîjat-alwadâd</li> <li>This manuscript is now IO Islamic 1698 in the India Office collections.</li> <li>[metadata: Hermann Ethé, Catalogue of Persian Manuscripts in the Library of the India Office, 2 vols. (Oxford: India Office, 1903): volume 1, number 261 here with notations and hyperlinks].</li> </ul> 1698 Thamarat-alfu’âd wa natîjat-alwadâd (ثمرة الفؤاد و نتيجة الوداد). Collected works in prose and verse treating of love and lovers, and consisting of little mathnawîs, poetical prose stories, ghazals, rubâ’îs, etc., all of the elegiac kind, as the author composed them three years after a great misfortune, a فراق or هجران (a parting), that seems to have been the loss of his beloved one, which befell him in A.H. 1143 (A.D. 1730, 1731), in A.H. 1146 (A.D. 1733, 1734), and finished this, his own autograph, the 22nd of Rajab, A.H. 1147 (A.D. 1734, Dec. 18). The author’s name is, according to the preface (see fol. 1b, lin. penult. and fol. 2a, l. 1), Muḥammad Ḳâsim, with the takhalluṣ Żarâfat (ظرافت),but this seems to have been an afterthought of the poet, since in all the lyrical poems of this work the takhalluṣ is either Ḳâsim or Ṣadâḳât (صداقت), see, for instance, fol. 92b, l. 2, fol. 173a, ll. 3 and 8, fol. 173b, ll. 3 and 9, etc., and in all places where ظرافت appears, it is evidently corrected out of an original صداقت, signs of scratching being clearly visible. Beginning of the preface, on fol. 1b: الحمد لله الذى برحمته الّف بين القلوب و جعل العشّاق منشقّة الجيوب و صيّر الصبر سبب وصال المطلوب الخ. The first poetical piece is a حمد و نعت , on fol. 3a, beginning: بنام آنكه نامش الفت آموخت رخ عصيان زجام رحمت افروخت The second, a مناجات, on fol. 3b, beginning: الهى عاصئ رحمت پناهم گنهكار ضراعت دستگاهم The principal part of this collection ends with the colophon, on fol. 187a, giving the above-mentioned date, A.H. 1147, 22nd of Rajab; but on ff. 188b-212a a longer mathnawî follows by the same author, and composed, as he says on fol. 189a, l. 8, six years after his heavy loss, i. e. A.H. 1149 (A.D. 1736, 1737), or two years after the completion of the main part of this work. Beginning: بنام آنكه نامش ذكر جانست بعاصى بندگانش مهربانست It is copied, like the preceding portion, by the author’s own hand. Another copy of this work is described in Rieu ii. p. 710b, where it is represented as a coherent mathnawî with inserted extracts from Arabic and Persian works and consisting of two daftars, completed respectively A.H. 1146 and 1149 (see above); the appendix mentioned there, as describing a happy meeting of the poet with his beloved in A.H. 1156 (A.D. 1743), is not found in this copy, which seems somewhat different from Rieu’s and does decidedly not represent a coherent mathnawî, as, apart from the inserted pieces in prose and verse, even the original parts differ both in metre and in poetical character, lyrical poetry being mixed up with the epical to a great extent. No. 261, ff. 212, ll. 12; two illuminated frontispieces on ff. 1b and 188b; small illuminations throughout; Nasta’lîḳ; size, 83/8 in. by 53/8 in.

The love-story of prince Bahrâm and Gulandâm, a romantic mathnawî which seems to be identical with Amîn’s epopee of the same title, noticed in Rieu ii. p. 877b. It opens here with seven admonitions (پند), on fol. 1a, thus: بخواهم گفتنت هفت پند موزون الخ. The story itself begins, on fol. 4a, with the following chapter: بخشيدن شاه كشور تاج و جهان پيمائى به بهرام. Rieu’s copy is dated A.H. 1147 (A.D. 1734, 1735), the present one the 18th of Jumâdâ-althânî, A.H. 1224 (A.D. 1809, July 31). A version of the same story in Pushtû verses by a poet with the takhalluṣ Fayyâḍ is preserved in No. 3249 of the India Office Collection. It is written in stanzas of unequal length, each of which is a ghazal, somewhat like Bâ’îkhân’s مجنون و ليلى , see Z. D. M. G. xvi. P. 789; another version in the Gûrân dialect of Eastern Kurdistân is described in Rieu ii. p. 734; a third in Dakhnî verses by Ṭab’î is noticed in A. Sprenger, Catal., pp. 639 and 643; the last-mentioned was composed A.H. 1081 (A.D. 1670, 1671). No. 2097, ff. 113, 2 coll., each ll. 12; large and distinct Nasta’lîḳ; size, 8¼ in. by 5¾ in.

Lyrical poems by Jaswant Râi Munshî, who made a fair copy of his dîwân in A.H. 1124 (A.D. 1712), and is probably identical with the author of the popular epopee سسّى وپنو, which was completed A.H. 1140 (A.D. 1727, 1728), see A.

Its rather unfinished state makes it probable, that it is an autograph of the poet himself. Beginning of the ghazals, on fol. 1b: اى پر دُر از سحاب ثنايت رساله ها گرديد سينه چاك صدف زين نواله ها The initial ghazal of Sprenger’s copy is here the third (on fol. 2a), beginning thus: اى پر شكر زنام تو كام و دهان ما طوطى سبق گرفته زنطق زبان ما No date.

Lyrical poems of Ghairat, a poet who must have flourished in the beginning of Muḥammadshâh’s reign, as he mentions this emperor twice, on ff. 146b, l. 6, and 147a, l. 1, and there are besides the dates A.H. 1135 and 1134 (A.D. 1722, 1723 and 1721, 1722) given in the ta’rîkhât, on ff. 146b and 147a. There are mentioned in the various tadhkiras three poets with this takhalluṣ, all of whom might be identical with this one, viz. Mullâ Muḥammad Ghairat of Kashmîr, Makhzan-algharâ’ib, No. 1823 (Bodleian Cat., col. 357); Muḥammad ‘Âḳil Ghairat, Safînah, No. 558 (ib., col. 229), and Makhzan-algharâ’ib, No. 1827 (ib.,col. 358); and Mullâ Ghairat of Hamadân, Muntakhab-alsh’âr, No. 460 (ib., col. 249). Contents: Ghazals, in alphabetical order, on fol. 1b, beginning: تجلّى زار كن يا رب صفاى سينۀ مارا دو چار جلوۀ ديدار ساز آئينۀ مارا The first twenty-three leaves are more or less seriously injured, and many verses entirely destroyed. Some mukhammasât and rubâ’îs, on fol. 126b. Ḳaṣîdas, ḳiṭ’as, and ta’rîkhât, on fol. 134b, beginning: تا كه در كام من زبان باشد – همه ذكر خدايگان باشد Rich marginal additions by another hand. Now and then blank spaces are left for the insertion of further poems; it is probable, therefore, that this copy is the poet’s autograph. No. 815, ff. 150, 2 coll., each ll. 12; Nasta’lîḳ; size, 83/4 in. by 45/8 in.

The earliest collection, it seems, of the lyrical poems of Mullâ Muḥammad Ḳâsim Dîwâna of Mashhad, who was a pupil of Ṣâ’ib (Nos. 1606-1623 above) and a contemporary of Sarkhwush, the author of the Kalimât-alshu’arâ (see Nos. 670-672); he was still alive in A.H. 1136 (A.D. 1723, 1724), comp. Rieu ii. p. 707b; A. Sprenger, Catal., pp. 113, 128 and 534, and W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., p. 699, No. 26 (where a few of his ghazals are noticed). This collection, which contains ghazals and rubâ’îs in alphabetical order, with a few fards and rubâ’îs at the end, was written in A.H. 1101 (A.D. 1689, 1690), probably by the poet himself.

Lyrical poems by Mirzâ Muḥammad Mukhliṣ or Mukhliṣâ of Kâshân, who went to Iṣfahân under Sulṭân Ḥusain Mirzâ Ṣafawî (A.H. 1105-1135=A.D. 1694-1722), and died there at the age of sixty; he never visited India; see Rieu ii.p. 709a, iii. p. 1091b; W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., p. 699, No. 24; A. Sprenger, Catal., pp. 128 and 138; Makhzan-algharâ’ib, No. 2583 (Bodleian Cat., col. 380). Why Rieu, in the Index of his Cat. iii. p. 1171b, fixes his death as late as A.H. 1150 (A.D. 1737, 1738), is not clear, since Ḥazîn mentions him in his tadhkirah among the earliest of his contemporaries, and there is no evidence even that he actually lived to the end of Sulṭân Ḥusain’s reign, that is to say, to A.H. 1135. This dîwân consists of ghazals only, arranged alphabetically, and beginning, on fol. 56b (in the same way as Rieu’s and Pertsch’s copies): الهى پرتو از نور يقين ده شمع جانم را بشو از حرف باطل يكقلم لوح بيانم را No date.

Sprenger, Catal., p. 539. According to the date of the present copy he must have flourished in or before the middle of the twelfth century of Hijrah.
