On the older Eastern editions of this work in Calcutta, Lahore, B&ucirc;l&acirc;ḳ, etc., see Zenker, No. 574 sq.; ii. 486; it has been besides lithographed in Lucknow, A.H. 1264; in Constantinople (with extracts from the commentary of Isma&rsquo;il Ḥaḳḳ&icirc;), A.H. 1267; newest editions, Lahore, 1887 and 1888, Bombay 1887, and Cawnpore, 1888.</p> <p>Extracts in Gladwin&rsquo;s Persian Moonshee (new edition by W.

According to No. 904 (1043 below in this Cat.), the poem was composed A.H. 583 (A.D. 1187). Two Hind&ucirc;st&acirc;n&icirc; translations of the Manṭiḳ-alṭair are preserved in Nos. 2375 and 2817 (the latter in Dakhn&icirc; verses) of the India Office Collection. A Turkish commentary on the same was composed by Sham&rsquo;&icirc; (see the preceding Pandn&acirc;ma).</p> <p>6.Haft W&acirc;d&icirc; (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.D&icirc;w&acirc;n (ديوان), or lyrical poems, consisting of ḳaṣ&icirc;das, ḳiṭ&rsquo;as, ghazals, and rub&acirc;&rsquo;&icirc;s, without alphabetical order (see A.

Fl&uuml;gel iii. p. 447.</p> <p>10.Waṣlatn&acirc;ma (وصلت نامه), or the book of union (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 7, etc.; Rieu ii. p. 579<sup>a</sup>; and A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 355), on fol. 228<sup>b</sup>, beginning:</p> <p>ابتدا اوّل بنام كردگار &ndash; خالق هفت و شش و پنج وچهار</p> <p>11.Mift&acirc;ḥ-alfut&ucirc;ḥ (مفتاح الفتوح), or the key of victories (mentioned in Stewart&#39;s Cat., p. 60, and in Ouseley&rsquo;s Notices of Persian Poets), on fol. 242<sup>b</sup>, beginning:</p> <p>پناه من بحىّ كو نميرد</p> <p>بآهى عذر صد عصيان پذيرد</p> <p>Other copies of this rare mathnaw&icirc; are only found in the following two collections and in the Bodleian Library (Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 19; No. 623, 10; No. 624, 7; and No. 627, 3).</p> <p>12.Asr&acirc;rn&acirc;ma (اسرارنامه), or the book of mysteries ( see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 14, etc.; Rieu ii. pp. 576<sup>a</sup> and 578<sup>b</sup>; A.

Pertsch, p. 86 (No. 52), and Berlin Cat., p. 717), on fol. 257<sup>b</sup>, beginning:</p> <p>بنام آنكه جانرا نور دين داد</p> <p>خرد را در خدادانى يقين داد</p> <p>It is divided here into nineteen maḳ&acirc;las (not twenty, as in Sprenger&rsquo;s copy, loc. cit., nor twenty-five, as the heading of the last chapter might suggest); the last two maḳ&acirc;las, on ff. 283<sup>a</sup> and 284<sup>a</sup>, are respectively called the 24th and 25th, but that is a mere clerical error, since the immediately preceding one is correctly styled the 17th; the مقالۀ بیست چهارم therefore, on fol. 283<sup>a</sup>, is the 18th, الثامنة عشر , as No. 1096 (1033 below in this Cat.) correctly has on fol. 221<sup>a</sup>; and the مقالۀ بيست پنجم , on fol. 284<sup>a</sup>, is the 19th (نوزدهم).</p> <p>The last fifty-seven baits of this mathnaw&icirc; are repeated on fol. 242<sup>a</sup> above (on the page immediately preceding the beginning of the مفتاح الفتوح), corresponding to fol. 285<sup>a</sup>, l. 12-fol. 285<sup>b</sup>, l. 13.</p> <p>13.Kanz-alḥaḳ&acirc;&rsquo;iḳ (كنز الحقائق), or the treasury of verities (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 18, etc.; and A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 356),on fol. 285<sup>b</sup>, beginning with the same initial bait as the preceding بنام آنكه : اسرارنامه جانرا نور دين داد الخ . The title occurs on fol. 286<sup>b</sup>, l. 26:</p> <p>چو گفتم اندرو چندین حقائق</p> <p>نهادم نام او كنز الحقائق</p> <p>14.Il&acirc;h&icirc;n&acirc;ma (الهى نامه), or the divine book (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 11, etc.; Rieu ii. pp. 576<sup>a</sup>, 578<sup>b</sup>, and 870<sup>b</sup>; A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 357; Stewart&rsquo;s Cat., p. 61; W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., p. 111), on fol. 298<sup>b</sup>, beginning:</p> <p>الهى نامه را آغاز كردم &ndash; بنامت نامۀ را باز كردم</p> <p>15.Muṣ&icirc;batn&acirc;ma (مصيبت نامه), or the book of affliction (see Bodleian Cat., No. 622, 12, etc.; Rieu ii. pp. 576<sup>b</sup>, 578<sup>b</sup>, and 816<sup>b</sup>; A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 349; W. Pertsch, p. 85 (No. 51), and Berlin Cat., pp., 101 and 781; G. Fl&uuml;gel 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.Lis&acirc;n-alghaib (لسان الغيب), or the tongue of mystery (mentioned in Stewart&rsquo;s Cat., p. 60 and in Ouseley&rsquo;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 mathnaw&icirc; 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.Jaw&acirc;hir-aldh&acirc;t (جواهر الذات),also styled Jauhar-aldh&acirc;t( جوهر الذات), and &ndash; most correctly &ndash; Jauhar-i-Dh&acirc;t ( 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. Fl&uuml;gel i. p. 513; A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 351).
