<p class="indent">The National Library of Medicine has a volume containing two short essays and ten <em>maqāmahs</em> by the 15th-century encyclopedist and scholar Jalāl al-Dīn al-Suyū<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ṭ</font>ī, a <em>maqāmah </em>being a type of rhymed prose. The <a href="glossary.html#manuscript">manuscript</a> at NLM (MS A 35) containing the essays and <em>maqāmahs</em> by al-Suyū<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ṭ</font>ī is closely related to the Berlin MS We. 193, copied about 1800, which contains copies in precisely the same order. Other Berlin manuscripts contain additional copies of a few of the <em>maqāmahs</em> represented in the NLM manuscript. Specific references to other copies for each item will be given as they are catalogued individually.</p>

<p class="indent">Amongst the essays and <em>maqāmahs</em> in this volume is a <em>maqāmah</em> on rubies and gems.</p>
