A defective copy of the complete lyrical poems of Maulânâ Muḥtasham Kâshî, the teacher and friend of Taḳî-aldîn Kâshî, the author of the famous tadhkirah; he flourished under the Shâhs Ṭahmâsp, Isma’îl II, and Muḥammad Khudâbanda, and died A.H. 996 (A.D. 1588), see Rieu ii. pp. 665 and 666; G.

Khalfa iii. p. 312, No. 5655. The Khulâṣat-alafkâr, No. 250 (col. 311 in the Bodleian Cat.), fixes the poet’s death wrongly in A.H. 1000 (A.D. 1591, 1592).

Sprenger, Catal., p. 500. The remarks in the latter work, that this series was composed A.H. 997, must be an error, as the poet died A.H. 996. The first ghazal here begins:بودى در چمن ای كعبۀ حاجتمندان الخ. No date. The copy was received into the Library Oct. 29, 1838, presented by Mr. Hawkins.

The lyrical poems of another poet, with the same takhalluṣ, Hijrî, who was, as the contents of this dîwân prove, one of the court-poets of the emperor Akbar, and is probably identical with the Khwâjah Hijrî, mentioned by Badâ’ûnî (A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 65, ll. 5 and 4 ab infra) as a descendant of Shaikh Aḥmad-i-Jâm Nâmaḳî (see the Safînat-alauliyâ, No. 308, col. 305 in this Cat.), comp. also Makhzan-algharâ’ib, No. 3047 (col. 394 in the Bodleian Cat.), and Safînah, No. 189 (ib. col. 217), where he is called Hijrî of Farghâna, and stated to have been in Akbar’s service.

At the end of this part is a ta’rîkh for the death of the emperor Humâyûn: حيف زان پادشه عارف دانای حکیم = A.H. 963 (A.D. 1556). Ghazals, without any order, beginning, on fol. 29b: رسيد آن تازه ايّامى كه گل در بوستان آيد زشاخ سنبل تر بوى زلف دلستان آيد Muḳaṭṭa’ât and rubâ’is, beginning, on fol. 34a (not on fol. 34b, where the heading is placed by mistake): شها و شهريارا بر تو يا رب – مبارك مقدم فرزند بادا No date; among the many entries and notes on fol. 1a, the oldest appears to be A.H. 1015, 19th of Jumâdâ-alawwal= A.D. 1606, Sept. 22.
