Summary of Contents: تشریح منصوری Another MS. of the Tashriḥ-i-Manşúrí, obtained at the same time as that last
mentioned and from the same collection. The work has been lithographed at Dihlí
in 1264/1847-8. This MS. differs from most others, including that described above,
in having on the last leaf (f. 64°) an additional (seventh) illustration, representing
the standing figure of a pregnant woman with the child shown in situ in the uterus
through the abdominal wall. The other six illustrations occur on ff. 17 (Bones),
26 (Nerves), 29 (Muscles, unfinished), 40 (Veins), 44 (Arteries), and 57 (Viscera).
Ff. 64 of 30 5x214 c. and 11 ll., large, clear, but rather ill-formed naskh. On
the blank page facing each of the first six illustrations I have affixed a photograph
of the corresponding figure from the India Office MS. No. 1379.
