Note
The script for this manuscript is in 'a Persian hand', according to Epstein (p. 351). The primary text (fols. 9v-74v) is Petah D'varei, which is surrounded in the margins by other works. For example, Mishle Sendebar is written "three lines across the upper margin, three across the outer, and four across the lower" margin (p. 351). The text is partially damaged, and does not include the story Gibbosi.
