A highly interesting and valuable codex which may have been written in Baghdad in the time of Harun ar-Rashid. The binding, which is probably Indian work of the early part of the last century, serves, by its sumptuous mode of decoration, to show how the volume was prized.

There is no sign of Juz' division; the only lines of demarcation are the Sura headings which are written in gold with a gold ornament, shaped like a leaf or roundel or otherwise, in the margin. The diacritical marks are added by a much later hand.

The continuance of this work will proceed quickly and be completed this year. The publication of Delitzsch's Handwörterbuch has been anxiously expected by students for many years. All the Assyrian Words are in Roman Characters, thus rendering it of use to not only Assyriologists, but to all Orientalists.
