Spanish Ballads
Art. X.—The Cities of Kirmān in the time of Ḥamd-Allah Mustawfi and Marco Polo
In a later number of this Journal I hope to give a summary account of the Cosmography known as the Nuzhat -al-Ḳulūb or “Heart's Delight” by Ḥamd-Allah Mustawfi, more especially indeed of the geographical part of that compilation, and this will serve as a supplement to the paper recently given us by Mr. E.

Account of a Short Journey East of thb Jordan
THE impediments which, at the present time, the Turkish Government almost invariably throw in the way of anyone who attempts a journey into the country across the Jordan, and having heard of the large sums usually demanded of travellers by the Sheikhs of the Belka under plea of escort dues-emboldens me to offer this present account of a hurried trip through 'Ajltln and the Belka, successfully carried out during the month of November, 1884, withou…
Art. XIX.— Notes on some Inedited Coins, from a Collection made in Persia during the years 1877–1879
During a three years' stay that I made in Persia, while travelling about the country, and living in Tehran, Meshed, Ispahan, and Shiraz, I made a small collection of coins, and passed many pleasant hours in trying to decipher their legends, and reading in Persian histories what I was able to find about the kings and princes whose names occurred theron. Since I have come home, Mr. Poole, the Keeper of the Coins at the British Museum, has kindly lo…
