Muwâlî Lârî, a great admirer of Ḥâfiż, is quoted Haft Iḳlîm, No. 269 (col. 398 in this Cat.); Safînah, No. 31 (col. 213 in the Bodleian Cat.), and Âtashkada, No. 693 (ib. col. 285, where he is said to have been called Khurâsânkhân); a third Muwâlî or rather Muwwâlî, a Turkmân under Shâh ‘Abbâs II, is quoted in W. Pertsch, Turkish Cat., No. 168, and Berlin Cat., p. 701 (No. 41).</p> <p>This copy, the only one hitherto known, is unfortunately defective both in the beginning and in the middle.
