Note

Hirschfield (p. 155) has again confused the title of this work, calling it 'the travels of Sindbad'.

As this text is a direct copy of one of the early printed versions, Epstein calls this manuscript 'totally uninmportant', remarkable only in that 'anyone should wish to copy [it] by hand so late', something which shows both 'the popularity of Mishle Sendebar and the scarcity of printed copies' (p. 347).
