Printed in England by The Clarendon Press, Ltd., Cheltenham. TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE Obsolete, archaic, unusual and inconsistent spellings have been left in the text as in the original book. Obvious typos have been fixed, as detailed below. Arabic words and names appear transliterated throughout the text. `Ayn is represented by `, and hamzah is represented by ´. The same word or name will appear throughout the text with and without diacriticals over the vowels, and both with and without indications of `ayn and hamzah. My research indicates that the book _Bibl. Orient._ by Asseman, cited in the text, is referring to _Bibliotheca orientalis Clementino-vaticana..._ by Giuseppe Simone Assemani (modern spelling of name).
