Note

Text in Persian, preface in English

"Under [the title on folio 2 of the ms.] another later hand has added شايسته which is presumably intended as the takhalluṣ of the author. No work entitled Humāy-nāma has been traced elsewhere, and no poet with the name Shāyista has been mentioned as belonging to the relevant period."--P. ii

"Edited from a manuscript, apparently unique, in the possession of Sir Chester Beatty, ... It is no. 301 of his great collection of manuscripts now housed in the Chester Beatty Library in Dublin"--P. i
