This volume contains a Persian-Ottoman Turkish glossary compiled by Mehmet el-Eşherlü (f 2v), who claims that his intention was to improve and simplify the well-known work of Şahidi (died 920 AH/1514-15 CE). The words and expressions glossed are arranged alphabetically and overlined in red. The manuscript was copied in 1019 AH (1610-11 CE) by el-Hacc Mehmet İbn-i Hüseyin.
