Editorial notes and bibliography

Cod.Or. 2016 is an anthology of writings, mainly in verse, by Hamzah Fansuri and `Abd al-Jamal.   Sharāb al-`Āshikīn is the largest work.  Its text is fully vocalised.

Al-Attas edits the text carefully, noting all his emendations and corrections.  His aim has been to create a readable text, rather than to preserve the original text.  In general, these emendations have been omitted from the MCP text, except where they seem quite necessary for the sense of the text.  The policy followed for Asrār al-`Ārifīn has been applied here.

Al-Attas has also referred to Cod.Or. 7291 (5), a much later manuscript, which gives a slightly more verbose text.  In some instances, Al-Attas has imported clauses and phrases from Cod.Or. 7291 to clarify or gloss the text of Cod.Or. 2016.  In the MCP, this imported text is enclosed in angle brackets < >.
