Bundle of Oriental MSS, mainly in Persian and Arabic, but including two specimens of Sanskrit writing and one of Bengali. The texts contain mottoes and extracts from the Koran, a complete classified table of the derivative forms of the Arabic verb facal, a chapter or section 5 of a work seemingly entitled 'Catalogue of Kings', and an unidentifiable work. The work is mainly that of Mīrzā 'Abdu'l-Wahhāb of Isfahan, a popular Persian poet who died in 1828, and whose pen-name was Nashāṭ.

Nashāṭ, 'Abd al-Vahhāb, 1761 or 1762-1828 or 1829
