RAS Persian 350 (2) (Library, Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland)

Bound with Codrington/Reade No 350 (1), q.v. F1a: Seal of Ayyub dated 1132, as on No 350 (1). Not a Diwan of Khusraw as stated in Persian on F1a and in the catalogues. The text areas are mounted in blue paper mounts, uniform with those of Codrington/Reade No 350 (1), However this MS is by a different and persumably later scribe. The text is written in panels enclosed in gold margins outlined in black. There is a panel of rather simple illumination above the beginning of the text and the surround of the first verse have gilt floral decoration.
