E. G. Browne Collection
Contents
Summary of Contents: دیوان کمال خجندی A good, fairly old, but very incomplete copy of the odes of Kamál of Khujand (cf. V. 33 supra). It is defective both at the beginning and the end, but while it contains ghazals rhyming in ف-ی, none of those rhyming in ا-غ is included. There is also a lacuna after f. 31, where some ghazals rhyming in ه and all those rhyming in و have fallen out. Ff. 44 of 17'9X 12'5 c. and 13 ll. Clear but somewhat inelegant ta'liq. No colophon or date.
