The author is probably identical with Muw&acirc;l&icirc; T&ucirc;n&icirc;, who died, according to Taḳ&icirc; K&acirc;shi (A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 45, No. 649), A.H. 949 or 959 (A.D. 1542, 1543, or 1552); the same poet is mentioned in Haft Iḳl&icirc;m, No. 817 (col. 437 in this Cat.). Another Muw&acirc;l&icirc;, viz. Muw&acirc;l&icirc; L&acirc;r&icirc;, a great admirer of Ḥ&acirc;fiż, is quoted Haft Iḳl&icirc;m, No. 269 (col. 398 in this Cat.); Saf&icirc;nah, No. 31 (col. 213 in the Bodleian Cat.), and &Acirc;tashkada, No. 693 (ib. col. 285, where he is said to have been called Khur&acirc;s&acirc;nkh&acirc;n); a third Muw&acirc;l&icirc; or rather Muww&acirc;l&icirc;, a Turkm&acirc;n under Sh&acirc;h &lsquo;Abb&acirc;s 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.
