500 |a This manuscript contains notes and part of the poem in what seems to be Hichens's notebook. In the same way as he has done for the original copy of Al-Inkishafi (SOAS manuscript MS 253029), here too Hichens is attaching a notebook to the manuscript poem (SOAS manuscript MS 53823). The first eight pages are historical and literary notes on the poem. These are followed by 30 typescripts and 90 handwritten baiti (verses) of the poem. The handwritten part has some scattered translations written on pieces of paper and inserted within the poem. This manuscript has to be read together with SOAS manuscript MS 53823.
