25. Turkish commentary of the syntactic work Kafie, without the author's name, 4to.

26. مراح الارواح في التصريف Repository of Souls in Conjugation, by the author Ahmed f. Ali f. Mas'ud. It is the complete doctrine of conjugations or sarf morphology, which is opposed to syntax or nahw syntax; it is an elementary book, which students in Turkey keep constantly in their hands: it consists of six parts, which are: Mirah, Izzi, Maksud, Bina, Al-Amthila al-Mutarrida, Al-Amthila al-Mukhtalifa.

Since these treatises are often found separately and usually lack a title, I would like to list the beginning of each one here. 1) مراح Mirah is an introduction to the whole work; it begins with these words: اعلم ان الصرف ام العلوم و النحو ابوها Know that the science of conjugation is the mother of the sciences and syntax is the father of them. 2) عزّي Izzi begins: اعلم ان الصرف في اللغة التغيير Know that conjugation in language means change. 3) مقصود Maksud, a treatise on compound verbs, begins: اعلم ان العربية وسيلة في العلوم الشرعية Know that the Arabic language is a path to the sciences of the Law. 4) بنا Bina, thirty-six chapters on the forms of triliteral and quadriliteral verbs, begins: اعلم ان ابواب التصريف خمسه و ثلثون بابا Know that the chapters of conjugation are 35. 5) and 6) امثلة Emsile, small and large; these are tables of verb forms and derivatives of the verb, together with the conjugation of the verb. If to these are added the treatise on particles called العوامل Avamil and اجروميه Egrumie, and finally the syntax exposed in the work كافيه Kafie, the whole grammatical course, as it is taught in Turkish schools, will be completed with these nine parts.

33. شرح مراح الارواح في التصريف Commentary on the work Mirah, by the author Mola Hassan Pasha f. Ala al-Din al-Aswad, neither too concise nor too extended, but holding a middle ground between both, as Hajji Khalifa asserts.

34. This codex contains: 1) تحفة العشاق Gift of Lovers, Persian dialogues to learn this language, composed by Ebilhassan the Turk (died 622). 2) مناسك الحج On the Rites of the Holy Pilgrimage, a Turkish treatise. 3) A glossary for Saadi's Rosary. 4) A glossary composed in the manner of Schahidi by a certain man for his grandson Abdur-rahman.

35. Turkish Alphabet.

36. Two Emsile, small and large, or tables of forms and conjugations of the Arabic verb.
