Nebati (ff 1v-3r); Aşık Ömer (ff 3v-4r); Nazmi (f 4r); Hüdai (f 4r); Razı Efendi (ff 4v-5v); Hatai (f 5v); Sabiri (ff 5v-8v); Vali (ff 9r-12v); Hüsrev (ff 12v-18r); İzzet, Nabi and İffet (ff 18v-21v); Vecdi (f 21v); İsmeti and Hüsrev (f 22r); Suzi (f 23r); Nakşi (ff 23r, 28r, 33r); Veyrani (ff 23v-28r); Misali (f 28r); Kaygusuz (ff 29r-v, 36r); Arşi (ff 30r, 40r); Şeheri (f 33r); Niyazi (f 33v); Caferi (ff 33v-34r); Sultan Murad (f 34r); Sultan Selim (f 34r); İlhami (f 34r); Mısri (ff 34r-v); Vasıf (f 35r, 43v); a tahmis by İzzet on a gazel of Atıf (f 35v); Rubaiyat-i Bikes (ff 36v-37r); Ahmet Remzi Efendi (f 37v); Usuli (f 40r); Gazel-i Şems-i Tebrizi (f 40v), which is evidently a translation into Ottoman Turkish; Neşet (f 40v); Süruri (f 41r); Mahmur (ff 41r-v); Haver (f 41v); Emri (f 41v); Yahya (f 42r); Nedimi (f 42r); Senai (ff 42r-v); Sersem (f 42v); Vahdeti (f 42v). There are poems by Remzi that have been restored in several hands at a later date (ff 44-48). The remaining folios of the manuscript contain poems of Nesimi (ff 49r-119r) after which some prayers and devotional poems have been added in a much coarser hand on the original red-ruled folios. These include a mersiye-yi şerif by Tahir (ff 119v-120v); and verses by Remzi (f 121v). The last folio is ready ruled but blank. The folios of this manuscript, which are mounted on guards, have been placed out of order in the binding. There are also lacunae after f 83 and f 88 and beetween ff 44 and 48. Folio 40 should come after f 34, judging by the catchwords; 35 after 43; 85 before 88; 87 before 86; and 86 before 89. The paper of the work is considerably stained by damp. The manuscript was probably copied in the 18th or 19th centuries CE.
