Note

Note: the Qalamos catalogue notes that this text is 'less elegant' than the other Dresden text of the Forty Vezirs; this may point to an error in their shared attribution to Şeyḫ-zāde (perhaps one ought to be attributed to Ahmed-i Misri instead).

Additionally, the catalogue indicates that the text is incomplete, with several lacunae (between folios 63-64 and 67-68), and ending with the story told by the thirteenth vezir.
