According to No. 904 (1043 below in this Cat.), the poem was composed A.H. 583 (A.D. 1187). Two Hindûstânî translations of the Manṭiḳ-alṭair are preserved in Nos. 2375 and 2817 (the latter in Dakhnî verses) of the India Office Collection. A Turkish commentary on the same was composed by Sham’î (see the preceding Pandnâma).</p> <p>6.Haft Wâdî (هفت وادى), or the seven valleys, i.e. the seven stages on the mystical road (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 9, etc.; and A.

According to the last hemistich, كه در ششصد نود نه شد تمام اين, which appears with exactly the same wording in the Bodleian copies just mentioned, this poem would have been composed in A.H. 699; but since such a date is impossible, we suggest, either to read پنجصد for ششصد (which would give A.H. 599=A.D. 1202, 1203), or better still, to substitute نوازده for نود نه (i.e. A.H. 619=A.D. 1222).</p> <p>9.Dîwân (ديوان), or lyrical poems, consisting of ḳaṣîdas, ḳiṭ’as, ghazals, and rubâ’îs, without alphabetical order (see A.

Sprenger, Catal., p. 349; W. Pertsch, p. 85 (No. 51), and Berlin Cat., pp., 101 and 781; G. Flügel i. p. 510; in C. J. Tornberg, p. 100, it is called نزهت نامه, and in one Bodleian copy, Bodleian Cat., 623, 17, also عقد المسافات), on fol. 351<sup>b</sup>, beginning with the same initial bait as the هفت وادى (No. 6 above):</p> <p>حمد پاک از جان پاك آن پاکرا</p> <p>كو خلافت داد مشت خاكرا</p> <p>16.Lisân-alghaib (لسان الغيب), or the tongue of mystery (mentioned in Stewart’s Cat., p. 60 and in Ouseley’s Notices of Persian Poets), on fol. 419<sup>b</sup>, beginning:</p> <p>اسم توحيد ابتداى نام اوست</p> <p>مرغ روح جملگى در دام اوست</p> <p>Other copies of this rare mathnawî are only found in No. 1096 (1033 in this Cat.) and in the Bodleian Library (Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 4; No. 623, 6; No. 624, 13; No. 625. 20; and No. 626, 2).</p> <p>17.Jawâhir-aldhât (جواهر الذات),also styled Jauhar-aldhât( جوهر الذات), and – most correctly – Jauhar-i-Dhât ( جوهر ذات, comp. W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., p. 780, note 1), or the essence of existence (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 3, etc.; Rieu ii. pp. 576<sup>b</sup> and 577<sup>a</sup>; W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., loc. cit.; G.
